BigDog is the alpha male of the Boston Dynamics family of robots. It is a quadruped robot that walks, runs, and climbs on rough terrain and carries heavy loads. BigDog is powered by a gasoline engine that drives a hydraulic actuation system.

Now with that noise and all I’d run like mad if anything like this ever aproached me! And if this is “The Most Advanced Quadruped Robot on Earth” as they so proudly claim, well it definately tells something about our stature as “creator-like” entities. Just take a look at all the rest quadruped beings that already walk this planet, they all seem way more advanced than this to me!
