ANYbotics begins delivery of explosion-proof quadruped robot ANYmal X

ANYbotics has launched and begun delivering the quadruped inspection robot ANYmal X, which it calls the first legged inspection robot for explosive environments, compliant with European ATEX and global IECEx standards. Aimed at oil and gas and chemical scenarios, the robot uses explosion-proof enclosures for its 12 leg actuators and battery, places its AI computer and inspection equipment in a nitrogen-filled sealed compartment, and includes protections such as grounding and automatic temperature cutoff.
