Lumos Robotics LUD
The Lumos LUD is a wheel-legged robot of up to 45 kg that carries 50 kg and travels up to 8 m/s, intended for industrial inspection.
According to Lumos Robotics the LUD is a wheel-legged platform for difficult terrain, with switching between walking and driving, self-balancing and self-righting. The page gives standing dimensions of 920 × 500 × 570 mm, a weight of ≤45 kg, 12 degrees of freedom, a stable working load of 50 kg, a walking speed of 4 m/s and a wheel-foot speed of 8 m/s. Operating time is ≥8 hours unloaded and ≥4 hours at full load. The robot crosses obstacles and gaps of 80 cm, slopes of ±45° and steps of 22 cm. Two Livox MID-360 lidars and an Intel RealSense D435i are listed as standard. Availability in the Netherlands is not confirmed.
