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


Unitree's new G1 humanoid robot is set for mass production at $16,000. Standing over 4 feet tall and weighing over 77 pounds, the G1 will now feature stronger performance, with capabilities such as jumping, walking at over 4.4 mph, and climbing debris-covered stairs. While not expected to perform household tasks out-of-the-box, the G1 is designed for research and could be one of the first affordable, capable humanoid robots available for home use.
