Overview

Unitree Go2 is a quadruped robot designed by Unitree Robotics, a Chinese manufacturer. It is intended for research and education, particularly programming and development.

According to the manufacturer, the robot weighs 15 kg with its battery, an approximate value. It carries a camera and a LiDAR, and can be teleoperated. Its autonomous navigation follows a route defined by the user on a LiDAR point-cloud map. Also according to the manufacturer, the onboard computer in the PRO, X and EDU versions is a high-performance 8-core processor.

Performance varies by version. The manufacturer states a maximum speed of 2.5 m/s for the AIR version and 3.5 m/s for the PRO version. For the EDU version, it gives 5 m/s, an approximate running speed tested in the laboratory. The X version shows the same approximate maximum, with a normal speed range of 0 to 3.7 m/s. The approximate nominal payload is 7 kg for the AIR, with a limit of about 10 kg. It is 8 kg for the PRO, X and EDU versions, with a limit of about 10 kg for the PRO and about 12 kg for the X and EDU.

On the software side, the manufacturer offers a public SDK, available in a public GitHub repository, along with C++ and Python APIs. An official mobile app exists. The robot is compatible with ROS 2: the manufacturer lists the foxy and humble distributions, the latter being recommended. For simulation, it provides an MJCF model for MuJoCo.

On the Chinese market, the manufacturer gives recommended retail prices including all taxes: 9,997 CNY for the AIR version, 18,600 CNY for the PRO version and 29,999 CNY for the X version. The price of the EDU version has not been disclosed.

Several models serve as points of comparison. The Unitree Go1 weighs 12 kg, against 15 kg for the Go2 according to the manufacturer, and also has a camera, an official mobile app and ROS 2 compatibility; a comparison between Unitree Go2 and Unitree Go1 is available. The AGIBOT D1 Pro, a quadruped, is listed at 15.5 kg, with a camera and teleoperation. SpotMini is a heavier quadruped, at 25 kg. HyQ is a quadruped fitted with a camera and a LiDAR, like the Go2.
