PUDU D5-W Wheeled Quadruped Robot Dog
Every patrol has a commute and a workplace. The commute is long, flat and dull; the workplace is where the curbs, ramps and steps are. The PUDU D5-W Wheeled Quadruped Robot Dog is built around that split: it rolls through the commute on wheels and keeps its legs for the obstacles, so one machine covers both parts of the round.

Background
PUDU Robotics and the D5 series
PUDU Robotics is known for service robots that work indoors, among people. The D5 series carries that experience outdoors and into industrial sites. The series includes two configurations: the PUDU D5, a legged version built for maximum terrain adaptability, and the PUDU D5-W, a wheeled version designed for optimized performance on mixed surfaces. Both belong to the same platform family, so the software, the remote control system and the add-on concept are shared across the two.
Positioning and key technology of the D5-W
The wheel-leg version is optimized for efficient cruising and longer-range patrols across mixed but relatively smooth terrain. Its computing platform is an NVIDIA Jetson Orin AGX 64GB paired with an RK3588, a dual-processor architecture that delivers up to 275 TOPS of computing performance. Perception comes from dual 3D LiDAR and four fisheye cameras. Autonomous navigation is included as a standard feature, together with tools for creating and editing maps and configuring tasks.
The machine is also open. Its architecture supports add-ons such as delivery boxes and inspection gimbals, and PUDU provides a comprehensive SDK, developer documentation and integration support so that teams can build applications for their own use cases.

What makes the D5-W different from the legged D5?
The difference is the way each version spends its energy. A purely legged robot is the right answer when the ground is the problem: broken surfaces, repeated steps, rough slopes. The PUDU D5 Quadruped Robot Dog is the legged version, built for maximum terrain adaptability. The D5-W adds wheels, and with them it is optimized for efficient cruising and longer-range patrols across mixed but relatively smooth terrain. Where the route is mostly service road, apron or walkway, with an occasional obstacle, rolling is the sensible way to cover distance, and the legs step in when the surface demands them.
The D5-W still keeps real climbing ability. It handles a maximum step height of 25 cm, climbing capability of up to 80 cm, and slopes of 30° ascent and 45° descent. Those figures belong to the D5-W and should not be read across to any other version.
How does the D5-W cope with heat, rain and dust?
Caribbean sites test equipment with sun, salt air, sudden downpours and dust from unpaved roads. The D5-W carries an IP67 ingress protection rating and an operating temperature range of –20°C to 55°C (–4°F to 131°F). It also lists a cold-start capability below –10°C (below 14°F), which matters less on the islands but counts for teams that ship the robot to colder projects. Combined with a 1000 Wh battery and an operating time of 2 - 3 hours, the robot is designed for outdoor rounds rather than showroom demonstrations.
Who is the PUDU D5-W for?
The D5-W suits organizations that need to cover ground. Security teams on large campuses, ports, resorts and industrial estates can use it for repeatable patrol routes. Inspection teams can mount a gimbal and send the robot to places where a person would lose time walking. Logistics operators can fit a delivery box and move light loads along established paths, within the continuous walking payload of 20–30 kg (44–66 lbs). Universities and developers will value the SDK, the documentation and the open architecture for research and custom applications.
If your site is dominated by stairs, rubble or heavily uneven ground rather than smooth routes, look first at the legged PUDU D5, which is built for maximum terrain adaptability. If the route is long and mostly smooth, the D5-W is the closer fit.
What is the PUDU D5-W used for?
- Security patrol: long, repeatable rounds across mixed but relatively smooth ground, with a live panoramic video feed through the RCOS Remote Control System.
- Industrial inspection: an inspection gimbal or the optional inspection kit carries sensing equipment to plant areas that are tiring to cover on foot.
- Campus and site logistics: a delivery box add-on moves light items along configured routes.
- Autonomous mapping and tasks: map creation and editing and task configuration tools are included with the standard autonomous navigation.
- Research and development: the SDK, developer documentation and integration support help teams build their own applications.
- Human interaction at the site: voice and gesture control with 10+ natural gestures and a 6-mic array allows direct commands without a controller.

Where can I buy the PUDU D5-W and what does it cost?
You can request it through this page. The cost depends on the configuration, accessories, delivery and support you need, so it is given in a quotation rather than listed.
Summary
The PUDU D5-W answers the commute-and-workplace problem directly: wheels for the distance, legs for the obstacles. It adds up to 275 TOPS of onboard computing, dual 3D LiDAR with four fisheye cameras, IP67 protection and an open platform with an SDK, which makes it a practical tool for patrol, inspection and logistics across mixed but relatively smooth terrain. If that is the kind of ground your site has, this page is the starting point.
