Kawasaki Bex robot goat is an odd vision for travel and cargo of the future - Yanko Design
Who said that robot goats should have all the fun, especially when you can ride on a robot goat or let it carry your bags for you. Boston Dynamics' Spot robot had become quite popular in the past few years, especially when the quadruped robot got assigned tasks related to COVID-19 countermeasures. Spot has been famously or infamously labeled as a robot "dog" simply because of its four legs and smaller stature, especially compared to its larger and more nightmare-ish predecessor BigDog. For all its versatility, there are still some things it can't do, so Kawasaki took inspiration from a different animal to design a robot that could carry not only things but also people on its back. A goat is probably the last animal you'd think of as an inspiration for a human-friendly robot, especially since they're often portrayed in a negative light.
