ANYmal key features and applications
Highly sophisticated locomotion capabilities
• Robust locomotion with different gaits: walking, trotting
• Moving at the speed of a walking human (up to 1.0 m/s)
• Special maneuvers such as standing up, crawling, running, jumping, recovering from fall,
climbing stairs, overcoming/removing obstacles
• Outstanding mobility due to full 360° rotation for hip and knee joints
• Accurate foot placement in rough terrain
• Accurate mapping, localization, and obstacle detection

Excellent motion and interaction performance


• High resolution position and force sensing
• Accurate control of position, speed and contact forces
• Sophisticated control algorithms with high bandwidth

High level of autonomy


• On board intelligence for autonomous orientation and mobility
• Battery based power autonomy of 2–4 hours depending on activity
• High overall locomotion efficiency as a result of energy storage and release capability in
the compliant ANYdrive joints
• Docking station for reloading

Safety
• Single operator without special safety precaution
• ANYdrive joints with in-built compliance guarantee safety and robustness even during
dynamic collisions
• Robust against impulsive loads when running, jumping or colliding

Robustness and low impact


• Rugged design, well suited for outdoor operation
• Protected against rain, splash water, dust etc. (min. IP 67 protection)
• Can be operated in potentially hazardous environment
• Low noise level
• Low impact on the ground, minimal footprint

Size and payload (present version, scalable)


• 30 kg weight, dimensions of a mid-sized dog
• Payload of up to 10 kg
• Defined HW interfaces for sensory equipment (pan-tilt head, LIDAR, cameras, etc.)

Maintenance and repair convenience


• Highly modular decentralized electronics
• Highly integrated and quickly exchangeable ANYdrive joints

Modular software
