@robertjvictor This robot was designed and built, both hardware and software, at McGill. The predecessor (non-underwater) was designed and built with DARPA sponsorship by a team from McGill, U Mich, Berkeley and Carnegie Mellon. The patents for this technology are held by several universities, not Boston Dynamics. One of the principlals (Buehler) worked for Boston Dynamics, but not any longer. In short, although BDI has a video of a predecessor on their web page, you are clueless.

@robertjvictor The ancestor robot (Rugged-RHex) existed before Boston Dynamics was in the business of making robots. The initial design was wholly created at McGill, and was transferred to BDI when the PI in charge of the project. The AQUA project was already underway when he left along with some of the team that helped create the RHex fmily of robots. The design was forked at that point, with BDI and McGill independently developing subsequent versions. And yes, the IP is owned by McGill.
