VIDEO: THE ANYMAL QUADRUPED ROBOT CAN USE AN ELEVATOR




Looking at the ANYmal quadruped might make you feel uncomfortable, but there is something intriguing about these robots. Regardless, these four-legged robots have evolved stunningly fast over the last few years and are set to become more commonplace, particularly in industrial settings. The ANYmal is a quadrupedal robot birthed a few years ago at ETH Zurich. They are soon to be available commercially and no longer needs human assistance when riding an elevator. 

The ANYmal is a small, multi-purpose robot that has been specifically designed for commercial and industrial applications. The bot is being advertised as good for uses on dangerous sites, such as oil and gas platforms or mines, as well as being functional as a basic security surveillance device. 

Weighing around 30kg and able to carry around 10kg, ANYmal can move at speed equivalent to that of a brisk morning walk and can operate between two and four hours on a single battery charge, depending on its activities. 

The latest video shows off the ANYmal using an elevator:
