ANYbotics develops quadruped autonomous industrial inspection robots with excellent autonomous mobility and autonomous inspection capabilities, which can flexibly cope with complex industrial environments and have strong digitalization capabilities and user-friendly experience, effectively improving industrial inspection efficiency and digitalization.

ANYbotics' robots are based on reinforcement learning technology and are able to maintain high mobility in complex, multi-story industrial facilities. Whether it's walking up and down stairs, crawling low, entering and exiting confined spaces, or adapting to slippery and bumpy floors, ANYbotics is able to move flexibly and safely, completing inspections in all corners of industrial environments. ANYbotics' robots perform automated industrial inspections of industrial facilities and environments, including equipment, heat sources, and gases, using powerful 3D mapping and synchronized positioning software that allows ANYbotics to accurately locate and plan optimal routes and autonomously perform defined inspection tasks without human intervention or Internet connectivity. Its equipment inspection technology monitors equipment in operation in real time, detecting malfunctions at an early stage and taking preventive maintenance measures. Thermal detection technology can frequently capture high-quality thermal data and identify thermal anomalies. Gas detection technology monitors flammable and toxic gas levels in industrial environments in real time, pinpointing the source of escaping toxic gases and alerting safety personnel to take preventative measures.

ANYbotics' robots have powerful digital capabilities. Through the fusion of LiDAR and depth sensors, ANYbotics can achieve centimeter-level accurate mapping to build digital twins of industrial environments; it can map large areas up to 4 kilometers in a single run and operate continuously without navigation markers, QR codes, or GPS; and it can continue to capture high-quality data during each inspection to keep the digital twin of industrial environments up to date in real time. In addition, ANYbotics' robots are digitally friendly, allowing users to quickly deploy equipment and inspection tasks directly from the control interface, making operation intuitive and simple.

ANYbotics' robots are widely used in a variety of industrial scenarios such as power, mining, oil and gas, chemical and rail transportation, effectively improving the efficiency of industrial environment inspections, reducing the cost of corporate safety expenditures, and maximizing plant uptime. Currently, the company has established cooperation with Petronas, Shell, Siemens Energy, BASF and other industrial customers.

In May 2023, ANYbotics closed a $50 million Series B financing round led by Walden Catalyst and NGP Capital. In the future, ANYbotics will further expand internationally and accelerate the popularization and application of intelligent autonomous robots in industrial inspection automation.
