Boston Dynamics

Upcoming Military Robot Could Feed on Dead Bodies.
A Maryland company under contract to the Pentagon is working on a steam-powered robot that would fuel itself by gobbling up whatever organic material it can find — grass, wood, old furniture, even dead bodies.
That "biomass" and "other organically-based energy sources" wouldn't necessarily be limited to plant material — animal and human corpses contain plenty of energy, and they'd be plentiful in a war zone.

Biomass-Eating Military Robot Is a Vegetarian, Company Says.
