“As if it weren't frightening enough to imagine a post-apocalyptic world where a robot dog equipped with a chainsaw hunts you down as you huddle for warmth under the floorboards of your shack. Now, instead of cold plastic and steel, you're greeted with the face of sparkles brandishing the same chainsaw. My God,” shared another.
“The fact that this thing could extend its neck several feet and open doors is a terrifying thought,” expressed a third.
“Ok, so armageddon will be humans getting chased down by animatronic puppets with googly eyes and cute voices. That is quite possibly the most nightmare fuel thing I've imagined in a long time. Hollywood doesn't need writes, Boston dynamic writes this s*** for free,” commented a fourth.
“How nice of them not to want to scare us when we’re being rounded up by robots. Very considerate. Thanks,” wrote a fifth.
Boston Dynamics describes Spot as the “agile mobile robot”. As per the company, it was created to “Automate sensing and inspection, capture limitless data, and explore without boundaries.” The robot is designed to work in various industries, from “factory floors to construction sites to research labs”.
