LEMUR


LEMUR System Description

LEMUR
LEMUR is a small, agile and capable six-legged walking robot that has been built at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory to perform dexterous small-scale assembly, inspection and maintenance of macro space facilities. It is intended to expand the operational envelope of robots in its size class (sub-5kg) through the flexible use of its limbs and effectors, as well as through the modular changeout of those effectors. In short, LEMUR is intended as a robotic instantiation of a six-limbed primate with Swiss Army knife tendencies.

JPL is developing a class of multi-limbed robots called LEMUR (Limbed Excursion Mobile Utility Robot). Equipped with multi-functional tools and multiple cameras, they are intended to inspect and maintain installations beyond mankind’s easy reach.
