==Description==
===Design===
BigDog is a quadruped military robot. It measured 0.91 m in length, stood 0.76 m tall, and weighed 110 kg, akin to a small mule. Powered by a two-stroke, one-cylinder, 15-brake-horsepower go-kart engine operating at over 9,000 RPM, it drove hydraulic leg actuators. The robot's computing power relied on a ruggedized PC/104 board stack with a Pentium 4 class computer running QNX.


In 2029, following the Zero Day bombings Clarkson was the lone survivor of a Templar raid on her Assassin cell. Months later she joined the hacktivist group DedSec.
===Performance===
BigDog's purpose was to accompany soldiers in rough terrains where conventional vehicles struggled. It demonstrated dynamic stability, traversing difficult landscapes, running at 6.4 km/h, carrying 150 kg, and climbing a 35-degree incline. Locomotion was controlled by an onboard computer managing various sensors, offering versatile walking patterns from crawling to trotting.

==History==
In 2029, after the death of her brother Lucas at the hands of the Templars the whereabouts of a sacred Assassin tomb which doubled as a hideout, became comprimized. Later, Darcy joins DedSec in order to get revenge and to keep the tomb a secret.
The BigDog project was initiated in 2005 and headed by Dr. Martin Buehler.


==Personality and characteristics==

===Equipment and skills===
Darcy Clarkson possesses a remote controllable camera drone. She is also equipped with a Hidden Blade, unlike most standard Hidden Blades of the Assassins, Darcy's is longer. Connected to her Hidden Blade is a Phantom Dart apparatus and a Hidden Gun.


Darcy was able to stealthily complete her missions for DedSec using her Assassin training, and could easily slip past enemies undetected.
In December 2015, the project was discontinued due to concerns about the noise generated by its gas-powered engine, limiting its potential use in combat.

Darcy is featured as a playable DLC operative in ''{{Wiki|Watch Dogs: Legion}}'', a game also developed by Ubisoft.

BigDog, a dynamically stable quadruped military robot, was developed in 2005 through collaboration between Boston Dynamics, Foster-Miller, the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and the Harvard University Concord Field Station. Despite being funded by DARPA, the project was halted due to BigDog being considered too noisy for combat applications.
