    They strapped an m4 on some servos on a robot dog with a rangefinder camera on top.

    I would have expectedly a gun designed for the dog like some tank turret. This is less impressive than expected.

        But Boston dynamics promised it was going to have a little barrel of whiskey around its neck and it would go find avalanche survivors!

      Cheaper than a ground up design. But I think you can start the clock until someone uses a grinder and cuts the gun right off.
