Running, jumping, and flying: welcome to the future of robotics.


Unitree has created their first universal humanoid robot. The H1 excels in speed, power, maneuverability and flexibility. Holding the world record for speed at 3.3 m/s the H1 is able to walk and run autonomously in complex terrains and environments. By using a 3D Lidar and depth perception camera this robot can achieve precision spatial data of its surroundings. The legs have a maximum torque of 360 N.m allowing it to support and move heavy loads. Its size, strength and flexibility makes the H1 an incredibly versatile robot.
