Dogo is intended for close quarter battle (CQB), anti-terror operations, urban warfare, tunnels and underground warfare, law enforcement, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions. There is a 2-way audio system for remote negotiations and deceptions.

The armament of the robot consists in a standard compact automatic pistol such as Glock or a Sig Sauer (a Glock is used in the robot demonstrated at DEFEA 2021 but this system is kept « discrete », hence the absence of a picture). The pistol is mounted in a module, remotely aimed and activated to fire via « point and shoot » technology.
