Last year, Chinese company LimX Dynamics launched Tron 1, a versatile bipedal robot with modular feet that can walk or roll as needed.
Now, the company has demonstrated its agility by having the robot jump over low fences, climb stairs, and overcome obstacles with ease.
In the latest video demonstrating the robot’s capabilities, the team decided to focus on walking through the city and all the obstacles that come with it.
In the clip, Tron 1 is seen jumping and going over obstacles, climbing and descending steps, and regaining balance after being pushed around.
Its performance is ideal for its intended purpose. Tron 1 was developed by the company to assist in search-and-rescue operations in disaster zones.

With its unique abilities to overcome irregular obstacles, it can easily navigate through debris.
For more domestic use, Tron 1 can also be used to accompany people who enjoy hiking, as it can follow them through rocky terrain and areas filled with debris.
The bipedal Tron 1 is already available for $15,000, which includes the modular feet that offer cushioned rubber, an articulated “sole,” and rolling mobility modes.
