Deployment-verified media (1)
ANYbotics footage of its ANYmal quadruped performing autonomous inspection rounds in heavy industry (metal, mining, and minerals), reading gauges and capturing thermal and visual data over stairs and rough terrain. ANYmal is route-taught and then runs inspection missions autonomously: genuine autonomous inspection, not a choreographed demo.
