The Legged Squad Support System (LS3) four-legged robot has been operating at an outdoors testing ground.

DARPA’s LS3 program demonstrated new advances in the robot’s control, stability and maneuverability, including "Leader Follow" decision making, enhanced roll recovery, exact foot placement over rough terrain, the ability to maneuver in an urban environment, and verbal command capability.

So it has many of the capabilities of a dog. Follow a person, take simple verbal commands and roll over.http://nextbigfuture.com/2012/12/darpa-robot-can-follow-human-leader.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+blogspot%2Fadvancednano+%28nextbigfuture%29
