DEEP Robotics X20, X30, Lite3, Lynx and Inspection Videos
0Another startup from Hangzhou City, DEEP Robotics is a leader in embodied AI technology innovation and application, being the first in China to achieve fully autonomous inspection of substations with quadruped robots.
DEEP Robotics' robot series have been successfully deployed in various applications, such as underground tunnels for the Asian Games, the Singapore National Grid project, and drill missions such as earthquake disaster relief and explosion detection drills. Currently, DEEP Robotics is engaged in long-term cooperation with industry giants such as State Grid Corporation of China, China Southern Power Grid, Baosteel, and Fluke.
The videos showcase its all-terrain robot DEEPRoboticsLynx, which can climb platforms up to 80cm, Reach speeds of 5 m/s, and navigate continuous 22cm steps. It also features industrial application quadruped robot X20 and X30 in the X series, and Lite3. X20 supports precise navigation, dynamic obstacle avoidance, terrain recognition, human-robot interaction, and other functions. X30 can operate in extreme weather from -20°C to 55°C, with IP67 protection. Comparatively, its humanoid robot DR01 has not been applied, which is perhaps the main challenge facing all humanoid robot makers.
The company announced on February 26 that its X30 joined a patrol project at a wind farm in the Gobi desert in Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region.
Over an area of 20,000 square meters, the quadruped robot collaborated with drones to perform inspections twice daily, each lasting approximately 80 minutes, and uploaded the inspection results in real-time to the monitoring platform. From August 2024 to February 2025, the project completed over 200 inspections, with a single-day inspection maximum of 349 subjects, including main transformers, disconnect switches and lightning arresters. It achieved an identification accuracy rate of 96.5%.
Under complex climatic conditions such as high temperatures, wind and dust, and light to moderate rain, the X30 robotic dog demonstrated exceptional environmental adaptability. Notably, it performed precise analyses of equipment operational status and meter readings on rainy days, effectively reducing the risk of equipment failure, said the company.
