Robot dogs are currently very popular.
You might recall the video we posted about the super flexible Boston Dynamics robot who can scale a complicated obstacle course, along with the robot dogs that look a little too much like they belong in a sci-fi horror flick.

This year’s International Conference for Robotics and Systems was like a clash of the robot dog titans as a video emerged of the Boston Dynamics SpotMini hanging out with the ANYbotics robot, called ANYmal.
According to ANYbotics’ cofounder Péter Fankhauser, it’s no coincidence that the design and technology is converging, but it’s too early to fear the rise of the robot dog empire.
