Laikago – named after Laika, a Soviet dog who was the first living creature to orbit the Earth – weighs 22kg, a bit less than a common Labrador. It’s some 60cm tall.
“It is a kind of medium automatic robot, a robot-dog in short,” Wang Xingxing the man who copied the robot. “We have popularized Laikago among science and technology companies, and science fans. So Laikago is a scientific toy.”
The four-legged mechanical pet is able to run on grass and can assimilate canine-like movements, just like a flesh-and-blood pooch. The initial price for Laikago will be around US$25,000, but may drop in the future.Would you pay $25,000 for this RoboDog? https://t.co/qKUjW8OFrv— Collected News (@CollectedN) November 23, 2017
