Anymal
Autonomous quadruped robot for industrial inspection
Contact for pricing
ANYmal is an autonomous four-legged inspection robot built by ANYbotics for demanding industrial facilities such as power, mining, oil and gas, and chemical plants. It navigates multi-floor environments, climbs stairs, and traverses wet or uneven terrain while carrying a sensor payload that captures visual, thermal, and acoustic data. The robot is commercially deployed for routine autonomous inspections and predictive maintenance.

Overview
ANYmal is an autonomous quadrupedal inspection robot developed by ANYbotics, a robotics company founded in 2016 as a spin-off from ETH Zurich and headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland. The robot is designed as a turn-key autonomous inspection solution for demanding industrial environments, including power and utilities, mining, oil and gas, chemicals, and rail.
Built on a four-legged design, ANYmal can autonomously navigate complex multi-floor plants, climb grated stairs, and move across wet, bumpy, and slippery terrain that would challenge wheeled platforms. It carries an inspection payload that collects visual, thermal, and acoustic data to generate insights about plant equipment, and it docks automatically to recharge between missions.
ANYmal is in commercial deployment, with ANYbotics citing real-world installations at industrial operators such as chemical and power-transmission facilities. It is positioned for recurring autonomous inspection routines, remote operations, and predictive maintenance rather than as a research-only platform.
