Robosoft unveils RobuDog
July 11th, 2007
You won’t be able to find the RobuDog at any pet store mainly because this is yet another robot dog. Running on Windows XP, this robotic pooch isn’t exactly adorable and would probably be the pug of the robot dog world. He looks more like a toaster with four appendages soldered on as an afterthought, but mom has always taught us to look beyond beauty when judging someone. The RobuDog’s standout point would be flexible ankle movement in its front legs that makes it…er, kick balls with more accuracy. Whatever. The RobuDog weighs 6.6 pounds and comes with 17 servo-powered joints, sensors for velocity and floor contact, a color camera, WiFi and Ethernet connectivity. No idea on price, but it will probably be affordable only by the likes of David Beckham who earns more in a week than I do in two years.
