About KRM Co., Ltd.
KRM develops quadruped robots, propulsion equipment and semiconductor technology in South Korea. Its robotics centre works on autonomous navigation, SLAM, perception and ground-control software for defence, disaster response, public safety, security and industrial inspection.
Vision 60 is a 51-kilogram all-terrain quadruped with sealed motors, IP67 protection and an operating-temperature range from minus 40 to 55 degrees Celsius. Internal sensing maintains posture in darkness or GPS-denied conditions, while cameras and AI support obstacle detection and path planning. A modular payload interface accepts communications and mission sensors, and KRM provides local manufacturing, maintenance and field support for deployed systems.
