Boston Dynamics robots can open door for everyone (video)

The robotics firm, which invented the walking dog robots and the back-flipping robot, which Twitter commentators said would herald the robo-pocalypse, has produced a robot that can open doors.

Unsurprisingly, those same Twitter commentators are at it again too, Indy100.com reports.

Boston Dynamics posted a video of its new and slimline SpotMini quadruped robot extending an appendage to open a door, using its legs to also hold the door open for another robot to walk through.
