Andrew Liszewski Boston Dynamics reminds us its robot dogs can dance. The company brought five of its Spot robodogs to America's Got Talent where they performed a choreographed routine to Queen's 'Don't Stop Me Now' — although one got stage fright and collapsed. It's another attempt to make the company's bots go viral, but is it enough to sell a $74,500 robot that can't assemble cars or unload trucks? Boston Dynamics, which laid off five percent of its workforce last December, is now facing more and more competition.

The technology is similar in principle to what's found in Qi chargers but a hidden wire running around the perimeter of the desk generates a 3D field capable of wirelessly powering devices at a short distance.
