Default Google buys Robot maker Boston Dynamics




[Google has taken over military grade
robotic engineering company Boston Dynamics.
The buy out is the eighth robot company bought
by the California-based business
in the last six months.
Boston Dynamics specialise in animal
kingdom-inspired creations.
It is rumoured their robots could be
used for anything from factory work
to rough terrain mapping or even package delivery.
Boston Dynamics' robots are known for
being incredibly agile, and have the
ability to scale all types of challenging terrains.]

Reported on Ch4 news


The US Military are using them
