Boston Dynamics to begin selling its robot dog Spot next year

Boston Dynamics will begin selling its groundbreaking SpotMini robo-dogs as early as next year. The company currently has 10 prototypes of the quadruped and has plans to build 100 more this year. It has previously shown the robot carrying packages around and office and even loading a dishwasher. President Marc Raibert didn't reveal any price plans at a TechCrunch conference on Friday, but did say that the mini robots could be useful for security patrols. Boston Dynamics also posted two videos showing off the new skills of SpotMini, as well as a humanoid robot Atlas.
