Anydrive actuators, developed by ETH Zurich's Robotic Systems Lab, are ''ANYdrive''' is a high-performanceactuator developed by [[ANYbotics]], series elastic actuators designed for a Swiss robotics. They offer precise torque, position, and impedance control, making them suitable for company specializing in mobile legged robots like ANYmal. These ANYdrive actuators integrate motors, custom springs, high-precision encodersare designed for robust and versatile robotic applications, and power electronics particularly in a compact, water-resistant design. Anydrive's modular nature simplifies assembly and maintenance, and they communicate over CAN and CANopen protocols with ROS compatibility.<ref>https://rsl.ethz.ch/robots-media/actuators/anydrive.html</ref><ref>https://rsl.ethz.ch/robots-media/actuators.html</ref><ref>https://researchfeatureschallenging environments.com/anymal-unique-quadruped-robot-conquering-harsh-environments/</ref>
