ANYbotics Launches ANYmal X, World's First Legged Robot for Explosive Atmospheres
ANYbotics has launched and begun delivering its ANYmal X legged robot, designed for inspection in explosive atmospheres. Certified to meet ATEX and IECEx standards, the quadruped robot is intended for use in the oil, gas, and chemical industries. It utilizes an advanced industrial AI stack for autonomous inspections in dangerous environments, addressing the high costs associated with manual inspections and equipment failures in these sectors. The company developed a new explosion-protection approach for the robot's components to ensure safety.
Why it matters
The ANYmal X robot enables autonomous inspections in hazardous areas previously inaccessible to robots, potentially reducing operational costs and improving safety in the oil, gas, and chemical sectors.
