DEEP Robotics Lynx M20
Wheeled-legged hybrid quadruped (Lynx M20): ~15 kg payload (max ~50 kg), 45-degree slopes, ~80 cm step clearance. Autonomous navigation across extreme terrain for inspection and emergency response.
Current platform
DEEP Robotics X20
Industrial inspection quadruped (~53-57 kg, IP66, ~15 km range, 20 kg payload). Autonomous multi-sensor-fusion inspection (LiDAR + RTK), obstacle avoidance and terrain recognition; operates in complete darkness via multi-sensor SLAM. Distinct from the X30.
Current platform
DEEP Robotics Lite3
Compact research/education quadruped with dynamic locomotion (terrain-adaptive, front-flip capable) and an SDK for autonomy/RL development. Commercial; used by academic and developer partners.
Current platform
DEEP Robotics X30
Industrial-inspection quadruped with autonomous, terrain-adaptive navigation and obstacle avoidance for power, utilities and hazardous environments. Commercial (specific named autonomous-inspection deployment sites not independently verified - honest-absence on deployments this wave).
