At the World Robot Conference 2024, held in Yizhuang, Beijing, on 21 August 2024, Unitree Robotics brought its star products - quadrupedal robots Go2 and B2 and their wheeled-footed versions, as well as the much-anticipated H1 and G1 Biorobots - to this technological feast.
Since its release in May this year, the Unitree G1 humanoid robot has gained a lot of attention for its excellent performance and flexible posture. G1 is about 127cm tall and weighs about 35kg, with a trotting speed of over 2m/s. Its flexible joint design, ranging from 23 to 43, gives it the ability to perform difficult movements such as dynamic standing, sitting and folding, and even stick dancing, fully demonstrating the perfect combination of artificial intelligence and robotics. It fully demonstrates the perfect combination of artificial intelligence and robotics. The G1's force-controlled dexterous hand is especially noteworthy for its ability to perform delicate operations such as opening a Coke, smashing walnuts, and even soldering with a soldering iron, which can be combined with AI development and learning to continually refine the skills of the customer.
On 19th August, Unitree Robotics officially launched the G1 mass production version. After months of optimisation and upgrading, the G1 mass production version not only has stronger performance, but also has a more refined appearance, meeting the high standard requirements for mass production. At the conference site, the G1 robot specially dressed up in the image of the Monkey King and the mech warrior was the focus of attention.
Another Unitree Robotics heavyweight, the H1 Universal Humanoid Robot has rapidly reached volume production and led global shipments since its initial launch at World Robotics 2023.H1 has broken the full-size humanoid record for walking speed with its lightweight design (weighing approximately 47kg and standing approximately 180cm tall), 19 degrees of freedom, and moving speed of 3.3 metres per second.H1 is the world's first electrically driven humanoid robot capable of performing in-situ backflips. H1 is the world's first electrically-driven humanoid robot capable of completing a backflip in place, providing superior capabilities in the execution of complex manoeuvres.
Currently, Unitree Robotics has successfully deployed humanoid Biorobots in scenarios such as automotive factories for handling and other tasks, and will continue to expand its application areas in the future.
CCTV report pointed out that China's humanoid Biorobot industry is currently on the eve of an outbreak, and is expected to become another revolutionary product after computers, smart phones and new energy vehicles. At the World Robot Conference, Unitree Robotics' two Biorobots attracted a large number of people and became a must-visit hotspot, and their popularity is evident.
