Thanks to Rob for sending:

“I saw this during my run today around 9:30am by the Washington Monument. Looks like it’s Boston Dynamic’s Spot Arm . But I have no idea what it’s doing around there. When I took this picture, there was a park ranger (I think) who was looking through some papers and questioning its “owners”. But I didn’t stick around to find out what happened.”
