Swiss-Mile by RIVR is an autonomous wheeled-legged robot dog designed for last-mile delivery and complex urban navigation. It combines four legs each ending in powered motorized wheels, enabling high-speed rolling on flat surfaces and adaptive legged locomotion for obstacles like stairs, curbs, and gates. Key capabilities include carrying payloads over 30kg, speeds up to 15 km/h, stair-climbing, 360° situational awareness via fused sensors, and AI-driven autonomous navigation with human remote support. Targeted at logistics and delivery markets, it handles sidewalks, bike lanes, road crossings, tight spaces, and the final 100 yards to doorsteps, optimizing routes while avoiding pedestrians, pets, vehicles, and obstacles. Weatherproof design supports real-world deployments, generating data for continuous AI improvement through reinforcement learning.
