Robotics company Unitree has several models in its lineup, including the agile, backflipping H1 humanoid robot and the more standard G1 model. These products command a high price however, starting at $90,000 and $16,000, respectively. That makes the launch of Unitree’s R1 robot notable, as this 4-foot, 55-pound bipedal bot is sold starting at $5,900. Marketed as an “intelligent companion,” the R1 features Unitree’s staple articulation and agility, with one notable drawback: a lack of moving hands. Instead of the articulating hands on the company’s other models, the R1 comes with two static fists. Still, it is built with a Large Multimodal Model to understand and obey commands; as well as cameras, microphones, and speakers for listening and communicating.
