Boston Dynamics Begins Selling That Creepy Robot Dog You’ve Seen Videos Of
Boston Dynamics - the advanced engineering company whose uncannily lifelike robots have probably been appearing in your social feeds for the last few years - has put its first commercial product on sale: A dog-like machine named Spot.
Spot is small and light enough for one person to lift. The official product listing claims that during its 90 minute average battery life it can walk at 3 miles an hour, open doors, navigate uneven ground, and create 3D maps of the area around it, which your golden retriever probably can't do. Sadly.
There's no listed price, and sales of Spot are limited. If you want one, you have to fill out a form and wait for Boston Dynamics to contact you directly.

Kevin Feige Is Developing a New Star Wars Movie for Disney
Marvel mastermind Kevin Feige is adding Star Wars to his resume. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Feige is working on a new Star Wars movie with Lucasfilm boss Kathleen Kennedy.
THR quotes Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn as saying, "We are excited about the projects Kathy and the Lucasfilm team are working on, not only in terms of Star Wars but also Indiana Jones and reaching into other parts of the company including Children of Blood and Bone with Emma Watts and Fox. With the close of the Skywalker Saga, Kathy is pursuing a new era in Star Wars storytelling, and knowing what a die-hard fan Kevin is, it made sense for these two extraordinary producers to work on a Star Wars film together."
