Robots are either friendly or a hell-bent to humanity but either way is important to acknowledge the journey that robots have undergone to reach where they are right now.

We must acknowledge that one-day robots will take over especially in industry sectors where working environment is dangerous to human health. Though they are very expensive, we must appreciate the work done by billion-dollar companies in putting together those prototypes together to make almost excellent devices called robots.

You must know Google own engineering and robotic design firms like Boston Dynamics known for its marvelous inventions. In addition, here the Spot invention is super cool. Spot is a four-legged robot aimed for tasks inside and outside electrically powered and hydraulically activated devices. It has a spot sensor that help it moves around a rough terrain. Spot has find its way in robot industry and has shown great potential to be relevant in the technology for the long time to come. The team behind the Spot introduced it to the real dog-called Fido but Fido spends most of its time barking at the Spot. Robotic dogs have not yet reach the expectations and has long way to go and it has to make friend with Spot to advance to the next level of the technology.
