robotic dog
Artificial pet companion
A robotic dog is a machine designed to mimic the appearance and behavior of a dog.
Some are toys or companions, responding to voice commands and performing tricks.
Others serve practical purposes—security patrol, search and rescue, or military reconnaissance.
The robotic dog navigated the rubble looking for survivors.
Sony's Aibo and Boston Dynamics' Spot are well-known examples.
