Nevada Biotechnology & Bioscience will introduce UNLV Assistant Professor Dr. David Lee’s robo-canine at its April 9 meeting in Las Vegas. Dr. Lee’s research on comparative biomechanics of animal movements has contributed to the mechanical design and control of BigDog. You can get a sneak peek of BigDog in action by going to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1czBcnX1Ww
