Walking robots and invisible drives
Climbing, crawling, walking, or flying: Inspection robots can be found everywhere, and their numbers are expected to increase greatly in coming years. The red walking robot named ANYmal is an example of one designed to work in places that are dangerous for humans. Come with us to Zurich for a behind-the-scenes look at Swiss startup
ANYbotics, and learn how they taught their robot to walk.
Those who prefer machines on wheels should read the report on the new, invisible BIKEDRIVE AIR e-bike system. It enables the production of lightweight electric sports bikes – for the mountain or the road. Plus, this issue of driven gives engineers an excellent overview of the various brushless DC motors made by maxon.
We also cross to Great Britain for a look at motor specialist Parvalux, which has been part of the maxon Group since 2018. Here, robustness and reliability are the key requirements.
