Unitree Robotics

Founded 2016 · Hangzhou, China

Unitree Robotics is a Chinese robotics company founded in 2016 by engineer Wang Xingxing. The company specialises in high-dynamic mobile robots, with a focus on quadruped and humanoid platforms.

The company gained global recognition through its series of quadruped robots — including AlienGo, Go1, and Go2 — which are used in scientific research, industrial inspection, and education.

In recent years, Unitree has expanded into humanoid robotics, introducing the H1 and G1 models. These robots are designed as general-purpose platforms capable of operating in environments built for humans.

Owing to their comparatively low price point and high locomotion performance, Unitree robots have gained rapid adoption in research communities and among companies developing artificial intelligence systems for robotics.
