Revolute Robotics’ Hybrid Mobility Robot (HMR) is a robotic sphere that can be useful for activities ranging from inspection to defense applications . Undoubtedly, this innovative creation takes robotics to a new level.

It is a sphere-shaped robot that is not only capable of rolling in all directions, but in suitable situations, it can take off like a drone. A truly amazing and amazing idea.

The HMR is noted for its unique ability to toggle between driving and flying modes . This feature allows you to collect data in areas where other robots would not dare to venture. The most impressive thing is that it can fly in tight and complex spaces without fear of collisions. Additionally, to save power, the HMR opts to roll on the ground, extending its operating range by more than five times.

Intelligently designed robotic sphere

Thanks to its lightweight and somewhat deformable exoskeleton, this robotic sphere can absorb impacts during landings . Its ability to be a “little ball” that can roll, flip, and bounce over rough terrain provides effective protection to internal electronics by reducing excessive vibrations.

Regarding its possible applications, the HMR is ideal for inspections in confined spaces , automated security patrols, mapping in the mining and construction industries, as well as military surveillance .

Equipped with LED lighting, stabilization sensors, and a robust drive system, this robot can operate beyond line of sight, making it an optimal choice for carrying out missions in hazardous environments, such as search and rescue or bomb disposal tasks.

Another captivating aspect of the HMR is its ability to maintain a kind of “continuous situational awareness” . In other words, this robotic sphere can work synchronously with other robots in large environments. Thanks to its interchangeable cameras and sensors, it can be adapted to the needs of inspection teams, security services and rescue teams.

With all these impressive features, Revolute Robotics’ hybrid mobility robot stands out as an essential tool in various fields and industries, especially for inspection tasks.
