So after 20 years trying to make legs work, they switched to wheels, like everyone's been telling them all along... Thats gotta sting!

They're doing this along with the Spot robot though, they clearly know how to make legs (quadrapeds) work.

They haven't managed to master bipeds yet, but it's understandable given how hard controlling those are.

Warehouses usually have rigid, level floors.
