Η Google acquired the well-known robotics technique company Boston Dynamics. We know the company from previous publications. She is known for her scary quadrupeds with funny steps. The products που έχει παρουσιάσει η εταιρεία τα τελευταία χρόνια περιλαμβάνουν το BigDog, ένα μηχανοκίνητο ρομπότ που μπορεί να χειριστεί πάγο και χιόνι, το Cheetah που τρέχει με 29 μίλια την ώρα , και ένα παράξενο ανθρωποειδές με το name PETMAN. News of the company's purchase agreement from Google was announced Friday by the New York Times. There was no mention of Google's future plans.
Specific details about the price and the conditions of the deal are currently unknown, although Google told the NYT that existing contracts – including a $10.800.000 million contract signed earlier this year with the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) – should honored. Despite the deal with DARPA, Google says it does not intend to become a military company, according to the Times.
In a tweet, however, Google's Andy Rubin said that "the future looks great."
