The RobuDOG is on the Trossen Robotics Blog - http://blog.trossenrobotics.com/index.php/2007/07/11/robudog-by-robosoft/

According to what the Blog on Trossen is saying we're looking at a $4,000+ pricetag for this lil dawgy. It does have a nice set of features with powerful processor, built in WiFi, Gyro, IR, pressure sensors and built in CAM. But still that seems a bit salty.

Although this makes me want to possibly break down the Humanoid and build the Robo Puppy with the Bioloid kit.

Actually I prefer this pic, because we can see the feet and the different colors available


here's one of the simulation games


happy to see it stimulated your imagination
