DEEP Robotics Lynx S10 prototype completes Arctic Ocean ice-surface and ice-water tests aboard research vessel

DEEP Robotics' small wheeled-legged robot, the Lynx S10 prototype, completed a 76-day, 11,852-nautical-mile Arctic Ocean research test aboard Sun Yat-sen University's Polar Research Vessel Zhongshan, marking the first time a quadruped robot has set foot on Arctic Ocean ice. The unit, weighing under 20 kg including its battery, was fitted with anti-slip bionic feet mimicking polar bear paws in collaboration with Sun Yat-sen University, Westlake University, and Hangzhou Dianzi University, and completed crawling and motion-control tests with crampons; the body uses an IP67 integrated sealed design, and after increasing the surface area of its limbs for paddling, it completed swimming tests in ice water.
