Description

The Dobot Hexplorer is a hexapod bionic robot designed for stable, capable operation across irregular and complex terrain. Its six-legged layout uses a biologically inspired gait strategy that keeps multiple legs grounded simultaneously, providing inherent static stability on surfaces where bipedal or quadrupedal robots face greater balancing challenges. With 18 degrees of freedom and a maximum walking speed of 1.8 m/s, the Hexplorer handles obstacle heights up to 20 cm and slopes up to 40 degrees, making it well-suited for research fieldwork, inspection tasks, and outdoor or industrial environment traversal. The platform weighs approximately 20 kg and can be folded to 73.4 cm × 47 cm × 24.5 cm for transport, while its rated payload of 10 kg and maximum payload of 15 kg provide meaningful capacity for sensors and mounted equipment.

Hexplorer's compute stack is built around an x86_64 Intel Core i7/i5 processor with approximately 40 TOPS of GPU performance, and the robot integrates a Livox Mid-360 LiDAR alongside an Intel RealSense D435 RGB-D camera for terrain mapping, obstacle awareness, and spatial sensing. ROS 2 high-level and low-level SDKs with Python and C++ support, MuJoCo simulation compatibility, IMU data, and motor and joint feedback round out a development-oriented software environment. The modular platform accepts additional sensors, manipulators, AI modules, depth cameras, collaborative arms, and edge computing devices, giving teams a flexible base for research, inspection, and field task development.
