I imagine in some applications this is a godsend. The US military was talking about using quadrupedal robots as pack mules, and that makes a world of sense. However, I’d guess they’re not very smart and tend to damage anything that gets caught up in them as per usual industrial robots. In a controlled environment wheeled robots are probably cheaper too, so that limits the applicability a bit.
