Ars Technica reports:

The Thermonator, what Throwflame bills as “the first-ever flamethrower-wielding robot dog” is now available for purchase. The price? $9,420. It features a one-hour battery, a 30-foot flame-throwing range, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for remote control through a smartphone. It also includes a LIDAR sensor for mapping and obstacle avoidance, laser sighting, and first-person view (FPV) navigation through an onboard camera.
Read the full article. Per the report, the Thermonator is completely legal in 48 states. California limits flamethrowers to a 10-foot range. Only Maryland requires a federal firearms license to own one.

 
I wonder how difficult it would be to affix an automatic weapon on something like that, have it waltz into a public area and carry out remote mass shootings?
