Notes

India's first commercial quadruped robot, developed by xTerra Robotics (incubated at IIT Kanpur) and delivered to IIT Bombay for research.

A carbon-fiber quadruped with three actuated degrees of freedom per leg, controlled by joystick over WiFi, running ROS on an onboard Raspberry Pi.

Press reports give a price of roughly INR 20 lakh; the manufacturer gives no price.
