DHAV quadruped robot by xTerra Robotics
by Canyon Owen: India
The joint torque hitting roughly 80 Nm is what makes DHAV viable for rough work. This quadruped from xTerra Robotics in India uses 12 proprietary QDD actuators to handle inspection, security, and surveillance where rocks, sand, grass, loose ground, and stairs get in the way. It can haul payloads up to 10 kg without stumbling over difficult terrain. The design specifically targets industrial quadruped applications rather than just walking on flat floors.

India-based Extra Robotics has unveiled DAV, an industrial quadruped robot designed to operate across challenging terrains and industrial environments. The platform is built for applications, including inspection, security, and surveillance, with the ability to navigate rocks, sand, grass, loose terrain, and stairs. DAV uses 12 in-house QDD actuators, delivering up to around 80 nanometers of joint torque.
