Every field in the schema

8 of 33 fields stated

Imperial figures are our own conversion unless the manufacturer states an imperial figure itself. The source letter always belongs to the metric figure — a conversion has no source of its own.

The letter points to the source at the foot of the page. Fields without a figure are dashed: the manufacturer does not state them — that is not the same as zero, and not the same as no.

Notes

  • A research-generation quadruped from ETH Zurich's Robotic Systems Lab, commercialized by ANYbotics; the version described in Hutter et al.'s 2016/2017 papers, predating the commercial ANYmal C.
  • Torque-controlled series-elastic actuators (ANYdrive) at three joints per leg, sealed to IP67 for oil-and-gas industrial inspection.
