Robot Dog Roams Mall in Tech Demo

A mechanical dog from Unitree Robotics walked through a shopping mall this week, navigating crowds on its own.

The G1 robot used sensors and AI to avoid hitting people and objects. It drew crowds of curious shoppers who took photos.

The four-legged machine scans its environment like a self-driving car to find safe paths through crowds.

Unitree designed the robot for various settings. It could patrol malls, guide visitors, or deliver packages.

The public demonstration tested how well the robot handles busy spaces. Unitree wants people to get used to seeing robots in everyday places.

The company plans more features for the G1. They see malls as one of many places where robot assistants could work.

The test shows how robots might blend into daily life. More companies now bring robots into public spaces.
