Sources retrieved: 19 August 2026 (A, B)

Status: In production
Applications: InspectionSecurity and surveillanceResearch and development
Indicative price: Not stated
Intended use, per the manufacturer: Research Platform Based on dynamics-based gait control and AI gait technology, it provides walking stability and mobility outdoors, while supporting sensor and system expansion for field applications such as patrol, inspection, and observation. PTZ cameras, thermal imaging, lighting, speakers, and other modules can be combined according to mission purpose and environment, supporting scenarios such as surveillance, inspection, and observation.'Research Platform' is a label on the product itself, alongside 'Outdoor Walking' and 'AI Gait'. 'patrol' and 'surveillance' point to security and surveillance; the third quote is the product page's own module description. The manufacturer's company-wide industry list also mentions Defense & Security and Logistics, but not about RBQ-10 specifically.
