The Marine robot called Dragon Runner has been upgraded to include many add-ons.  The original robot used only wheels, but now the wheels can be easily swapped out for different types of tank treads.

Other available add-ons include a manipulator arm (for picking up those roadside bombs), stair tracks (treads and flippers for climbing stairs), cameras, microphones.

See a video of Dragon Runner here.

See a profile of the robot here (PDF).
