Tech company DEEP Robotics in China has juest released a preview of their four-legged robot called Lynx, featuring a wheeled design that enhances speed and versatility without compromising control. This robot has dual-mode locomotion that allows it to walk or climb like a traditional quadruped, making it suitable for navigating rough terrain efficiently and effectively.
In 2017, Deep Robotics was founded in Hangzhou, China, with the goal of creating autonomous stair-climbing robots. These days, the firm's product portfolio includes a wide range of multitasking humanoids and robot canines.
About Lynx, the firm claims it is a "middle-sized powerful quadruped wheel solution, unlocking new levels of flexibility, productivity, and ease of use for our customers." reads a LinkedIn post.
DEEP Robotics' new four-legged robot, the Lynx, joins its lineup of innovative quadrupeds, including the Lite3, X20, and X30. However, Lynx stands out by swapping traditional pad feet for wheels, significantly enhancing speed and versatility without compromising control.
As seen in a recent promotional video, this wheeled design not only brings added excitement but also enables the robot to handle diverse terrains more effectively.
The video demonstrates Lynx in action on a rigorous multi-terrain course. The robot maneuvers down steep slopes with careful control, shifts between walking and wheeled modes, and even climbs over an 80-centimeter boulder. Lynx’s dual-mode locomotion versatility and stability make it capable of tackling challenging terrain, whether on wheels or legs.
With its flexible movement modes, Lynx promises to offer a promising tool for applications that require reliable all-terrain navigation. The company claims that Lynx is now available for pre-order.
