ANYmal Robot Performs Sewer Inspections

ANYmal Robot Performs Sewer Inspections
Dec-30-18
The ANYmal robot can travel through sewers and other challenging terrains to inspect infrastructure or perform search and rescue missions.

In development for many years by ETH Zurich and the spin-off ANYbotics, the ANYmal quadrupedal robot has been upgraded with a light-sensitive camera and lidar that enable it to travel the dark, underground tunnels of a sewer system. As the ANYmal explores its subterranean terrain, it can take photos and monitor the geometry and temperature of the tunnels, noting signs of damage or weakness to help ensure timely repairs.
