Introducing SpotMini : A mini version of Spot

Hello Friends,

Have you heard of Spot Robot a four legged bot which is designed for indoor and outdoor operations.

If not you can view it at my blog Future Gadgets (http://gadgtechs.blogspot.in/)...

Now the amazing thing is that a mini version of that robot has been introduced.

The name of that Robot is "SpotMini" .  


SpotMini is a new smaller version of the Spot robot, weighing 55 lbs dripping wet (65 lbs if you include its arm.) SpotMini is all-electric (no hydraulics) and runs for about 90 minutes on a charge, depending on what it is doing.
It has a variety of sensors, including depth cameras, a solid state gyro (IMU) and proprioception sensors in the limbs. 
These sensors help with navigation and mobile manipulation. SpotMini performs some tasks autonomously, but often uses a human for high-level guidance.
