    So these the robots used in Singapore to regulate social distancing? How and what other technologies out of MIT will be used to surveil the people? 🤔
    No thanks!

    Communist will install a AK47 on the SPOT, attacking any opponent in or outside. Its a dangerous machine

    It would be helpful if it could carry a package as we’re practicing social distancing these days.

    Does PS3 controllers work natively on Windows 10? Or still need those motioninjoy/better DS3 software to work properly? Since she’s connecting it through USB and not blutooth.

    Anyway nice Spot dogo.
