Boston Dynamics' Spot is leaving the laboratory

Boston Dynamics is letting its first major robot out of the lab. Since June, the company has been talking about a public release for its Spot robot (formerly SpotMini), and today, it finally gave some details about what's in store. The Spot isn't going on sale exactly, but if you're a company with a good idea (and some money), you'll be able to get one. That also means, for the average person on the street, that the odds of seeing a Spot in the wild just got a lot better. The capabilities are more or less what the company showed off in June, but it's still impressive to see them in person.
