ANYmal · Best for
Offshore oil platform monthly thermal and pressure-line patrols (eliminates boat/helicopter logistics).
H1 · Best for
Inspection applications — walking through factories, construction sites, or infrastructure facilities that aren't accessible to wheeled robots
Final judgment
If immediate deployment is the priority, choose ANYmal. If the goal is to be ready when H1's capabilities mature, track it.
