Against the field

Each strip holds every robot of this type in the guide that states the figure, one bar per group of values. Further right means a larger figure, not a better robot.

Weight

51kg112lbOur conversion from 51 kg. The manufacturer does not state an imperial figure itself, so the conversion has no source of its own.

124 quadrupeds state a weight

MULE

35 state a higher figure, 85 a lower one. 1 more states exactly the same figure. Log scale: each step along the axis multiplies the value.

Runtime

104 quadrupeds state a runtime

MULE

28 state a higher figure, 42 a lower one. 2 more state exactly the same figure.

Max speed

Notes

MULE (Multi-Utility Legged Equipment) is built by AeroArc for the Indian Army, which ordered 100 units in 2023 and had received all of them by mid-2024.

The figures AeroArc gives for MULE (51 kg, IP67, -40 or -45 to +55 °C, 3 hours of walking, 20 or 21 hours of standby, NVIDIA Xavier) match the figures Ghost Robotics publishes for its Vision 60, whose lower temperature limit is -40 °C; AeroArc's page does not mention Ghost Robotics.
