Boston Dynamics, a Google-owned robotics company, has arguably created one of the coolest robot of our times. With such an unoriginal name, the Sand Flea, you’d never expect that this robot can jump up to 30 feet.
The Sand Flea was funded by the U.S. Army’s Rapid Equipping Force. This means that it’s possible the technology in this robot will be seen in future surveillance robots that can get to places others can’t.
