BigDog is a dynamically stable quadruped military robot that was created in 2005 by Boston Dynamics with Foster-Miller, the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and the Harvard University Concord Field Station.^[1] It was funded by DARPA, but the project was shelved after the BigDog was deemed too loud for combat.^[2]
