  • The paper presents a full perception, planning, and control pipeline for optimizing all robot degrees of freedom in real time.
  • Experiments on ANYmal cover gaps, slopes, and stepping stones, including dynamic climbing behaviors.
  • It expands ANYmal research coverage from blind locomotion into perception-aware nonlinear model predictive control.

ANYbotics develops autonomous legged robots for industrial inspection in complex and hazardous environments. Its ANYmal platform targets repeatable monitoring, inspection and safety workflows.
