I never saw BD as a product company. > We began as a spin-off from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where we developed the first robots that ran and maneuvered like animals. Now we are taking the next step, combining the principles of dynamic control and balance with sophisticated mechanical designs, cutting-edge electronics, and software for perception, navigation, and intelligence. They seem pretty clearly to be a R&D company around dynamic control and balance, so it makes sense that they would have rather complicate robots.
