  • The system combines a Unitree H2 humanoid chassis, Sharpa Wave tactile five-finger hands, NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor T5000 onboard compute and Isaac GR00T software workflows.
  • H2 Plus is intended to give research teams an integrated platform for data capture, simulation, training, policy evaluation, deployment and real-world humanoid skill development.

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.
