ANYbotics has partnered with dormakaba and LEGIC Identsystems to enable its ANYmal quadruped robots to autonomously pass through doors, removing a significant obstacle to facility-wide robotic inspections.
The system allows ANYmal to move between different areas of industrial facilities without requiring workers to open doors or operators to modify inspection routes around inaccessible areas.
For ordinary unlocked doors, a radar sensor detects an approaching ANYmal and activates a retrofitted dormakaba ED 100 or ED 250 door operator. The door opens, the robot passes through and it closes behind it. [Read more…] about ANYbotics gives ANYmal robots automated access through secure doors
