Super-advanced robot can now rear up on legs like a human

An advanced robot that was previously designed with the ability to roll on four-wheeled legs can now stand up like a human.

The latest incarnation of ANYmal has been unveiled by Swiss-Mile, a spin-off from ETH Zurich research university.

The robot can motor along, tackle obstacles like stairs and can now rear up on its two back legs to balance like a humanoid.

Swiss-Mile spokesperson said: “We deploy a novel wheeled-legged robot for large-scale reality capture through digital twins, last-mile delivery problems, and logistics in urban environments”.
