Foundation-model grasping pipeline streams commands to Unitree G1

Apr 19, 2026 · Research Publication · Unitree · Humanoid

  • The paper presents a rapid deployment pipeline that combines Roboflow annotation, SAM 3D reconstruction, FoundationPose tracking, and Unity inverse kinematics.
  • The estimated pose is streamed over UDP to a Unitree G1 humanoid through the Unitree SDK for real-robot grasping tests.
  • The work gives G1 a concrete real-robot grasping testbed for foundation-model perception and manipulation pipelines.

Develops quadruped and humanoid robots, with strength in dynamic locomotion, vertically integrated hardware, and relatively low-cost commercial deployment. Unitree is one of the clearest examples of a legged robotics company moving from research visibility into real productisation and broader market distribution.
