Two years ago we first heard about the Swiss-Mile Robot, a quadruped bot with powered wheels on the ends of its four legs. It's now in for some competition, as China's LimX Dynamics has announced it ...

Researchers at ETH Zürich are very good at keeping robots standing upright. Back in 2022, the school’s robotics team taught the quadrupedal ANYmal robot how to hike up mountains without falling over.

Grossi tried on the robotic legs in Zhangjiajie National Park about 800 miles (1,290 km) south-west of Beijing. The device is rented out to people in the national park for $22 a time, but you can also ...

If you think about it, the fact that we often call quadrupedal machines “robot dogs” is pretty generous. Sure, they have four legs and can walk or crouch, but real dogs are miles ahead of their robot ...

The overall weight of Black Panther 2.0 is 38 kg and the standing height is 0.63 m. HIC-ZJU claims it is currently the fastest quadruped robot in the world, with a speed of up to 10 m/s. The R&D team ...

Swiss Mile's ANYmal robot is a remarkable beast, capable of getting around as a wheeled quadruped, or standing up on its hind legs and using its front wheels as hands. Now, it's learning to do useful ...
