LYNX M20S

LYNX M20S

By: Deep Robotics

Launched: 2026

LYNX M20S is the next-generation wheeled-legged robot from DEEP Robotics, upgrading the LYNX M20 for tougher industrial and emergency work. Each leg ends in a driven wheel, so it can race along roads, then lift and step its legs to climb stairs, platforms and rough forest ground. Without getting any heavier, it carries more than twice the M20’s working load and runs much faster, and its fully sealed body lets it cross rivers and work in deep cold or blast-furnace heat. Dual hot-swappable batteries keep it running through long substation inspections, firefighting support and rescue missions.

Jueying Mini

By: Deep Robotics

Launched: 2020

Jueying Mini, listed simply as Mini on the Deep Robotics English site, is a mid-sized robot dog from the Hangzhou maker of the X20, X30 and Lite3. It is built as a smart, perception-heavy platform: laser sensing and cameras let it map its surroundings, navigate on its own, avoid obstacles and follow a person, while onboard deep-learning software recognizes objects and understands spoken commands. It handles indoor and outdoor ground, slopes and stairs and can carry a useful load, which makes it a capable base for research, education and visual perception projects.

Lynx

Lynx

By: Deep Robotics

Launched: 2024 (Global rollout 2025)

The Lynx is a compact wheel-leg hybrid quadruped robot designed for exceptional terrain adaptability and embodied AI capabilities, targeting industrial, research, defense, and field operations. It features ultra-wide joint movement ranges, enabling seamless switching between configurations like front-elbow rear-knee for tight spaces and full-elbow for stair climbing, navigating corridors as narrow as 50 cm. Key capabilities include omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, 360° point-cloud mapping via dual 96-line LiDARs, high-speed mobility up to 5 m/s (lab-tested, 2 m/s operational), slope handling up to 45°, continuous stair climbing to 25 cm, and single-step overcoming up to 80 cm. With IP66 protection, operation from -20°C to 55°C, hot-swappable batteries for 3 hours unloaded endurance (15 km range) or 2.5 hours loaded (12 km), and modular expansion ports, it supports payloads up to 15 kg (max load 50 kg). Powered by dual octa-core processors, wide-angle cameras, and OTA updates, Lynx excels in challenging environments like tunnels, pipelines, and off-road terrains, replacing humans in high-risk tasks while ensuring efficiency, safety, and scalability.
