The Lynx’s design allows it to lock its wheels, enabling it to walk or climb like a conventional quadruped. This feature makes it suitable for navigating rough and uneven surfaces, while its powerful motors can also drive it efficiently over loose dirt, gravel, and smooth pavement. In essence, Lynx combines the adaptability of a walking robot with the efficiency and speed of a wheeled system.

The video demonstrates Lynx in action on a rigorous multi-terrain course. The robot maneuvers down steep slopes with careful control, shifts between walking and wheeled modes, and even climbs over an 80-centimeter boulder. Lynx’s dual-mode locomotion versatility and stability make it capable of tackling challenging terrain, whether on wheels or legs.
