This is true too ! The @sssdefence SABER is our first baby & we were planning on holding off on the news until delivery happened. Not hiding anything from @alpha_defense again. Should say that police forces in India have embraced the “Aatmanirbhar Bharat” credo & none better than @Uppolice in this

This is India's most advanced wheeled quadruped.
The Dhav-Hy quadruped by xTerra Robotics (@xTerraRobotics) navigates obstacles like stairs, ramps and uneven terrain with ease using robust locomotion policies.
And it doesn't even use vision. There are no cameras on this robot. You can kick it, stand on it or push it around and it's able to stay upright without falling.
Once xTerra incorporates their vision stack, Dhav will become even more capable.
Dhav-Hy, which weighs 23 kilograms, can:
- Climb steps up to 35 cm
- Traverse slopes of 45 degrees
- Use 80 Nm of peak joint torque
- Move at a top speed of 5 m/s (18 km/h)
- Carry a 10+ kg payload across all terrains
xTerra Robotics invited RuntimeBRT to visit their facility in Bengaluru to put Dhav and Dhav-Hy to the test. Here's what happened.

A drone needs to know where it is before it knows where to go, and the power to get there once it does.

From the top, it looks quite close to the F-16, while the side profile gives it strong F/A-18 vibes.

Did you notice this beast in video?
We just launched Naxatra Drone Propulsion Systems.
We started as a drone company in 2020. Spent years building motors for scooters, tractors, cleaning equipment, power tools. Learned everything the hard way.
Now we’re back where we started, just a lot better equipped.
Also: new website is live. naxatralabs.com
