PUDU D5 Series: The Next Generation of Industry-Grade Autonomous Quadruped Robots
Pudu Robotics introduces the D5 and D5-W — powerful autonomous quadruped robots engineered for complex outdoor environments, industrial inspection, security patrol, and large-scale logistics operations. Featuring NVIDIA Orin, dual 360° LiDAR, IP67 rating, and 275 TOPS AI performance.
PUDU D5 (Legs)
The full-leg configuration delivers maximum terrain adaptability. It handles stairs, steep slopes and uneven surfaces using advanced bionic gait algorithms and IMU-driven stabilisation for smooth continuous operation.
PUDU D5-W (Hybrid)
The wheeled hybrid configuration optimises performance across mixed surfaces, switching seamlessly between efficient wheeled drive and dynamic legged mobility for maximum operational flexibility.
Engineered for real-world challenges
Advanced autonomous intelligence
🧠Automotive-grade computing
A dual-processor architecture pairing NVIDIA Orin with RK3588 delivers 275 TOPS for real-time SLAM, 3D reconstruction and autonomous path planning.
🏔️Terrain mobility
Hybrid wheel-leg locomotion reaches 5 m/s while clearing 30° inclines and 25 cm obstacles under IMU stabilisation.
👁️360° perception
Two 192-line spherical LiDARs and four fisheye cameras build dense 3D point clouds for centimetre-accurate localisation.
🎤Natural interaction
Supports over 10 hand gestures and carries a 6-microphone array with AI noise suppression for reliable voice control in industrial settings.
🔋Long runtime
A high-strength aluminium structure carries a steady 30 kg payload with over 2 hours of continuous operation and 14 km of range per charge.
❄️All-weather durability
IP67 protection with cold start at −10 °C and dependable operation from −20 °C to 55 °C in all conditions.
Built for demanding environments
The D5 series runs complete autonomous workflows — departure, patrol, obstacle negotiation and return to the charging dock — across a range of industrial scenarios.
