VertiGo, A Wall-Climbing Robot That Can Easily Transition From the Ground to a Wall

The VertiGo is a wall-climbing robot created by ETH Zurich and Disney Research that can easily transition from driving on the ground to maneuvering up a wall. The robot gets its wall-crawling abilities from two propellers that provide thrust up against the wall, allowing the VertiGo to defy gravity.
