Legged robot with the highest rated payload for inspection gear

Asked as: “For carrying inspection gear on a legged robot, which one has the highest rated payload?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

Of the legged robots with a published payload rating, the Unitree B2 has the highest, at 120 kg. It's a quadruped built for industrial use and rated IP67. Its onboard NVIDIA compute is an optional configuration that adds an Intel Core i7 and up to three NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX computers. unitree.com +2unitree.com ↗“robot.payload_kg=120 kg”unitree.com ↗“Industrial-grade IP67 quadruped robot”unitree.com ↗“optional configuration adds Intel Core i7 and up to three NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX computers”

If you'd rather use a robot designed for inspection, two options in this list are built for that role:

  • PUDU D5 / D5-W (30 kg): described as built for "delivery, inspection and security". They run on an NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX 64GB. puduroboti... +1pudurobotics.com ↗“for delivery, inspection and security”pudurobotics.com ↗“NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX 64GB”
  • Addverb Trakr 5 (5 kg): built "for inspection and security patrols", but its payload is much lower. addverb.aiaddverb.ai ↗“for inspection and security patrols, with a 5 kg payload”

What I couldn't confirm:

  • I couldn't find a payload rating for 5 of the 12 legged robots, so I can't say whether any of them beat the B2.
  • I don't have the weight of your inspection gear or how you'll mount it. Check that against the B2's mounting options with Unitree before you commit: unitree.com/b2.
