Overview
- Unitree showed the GD01 in a video, a mecha-style humanoid about 3.4 meters tall and roughly 500 kilograms with a cage cockpit and electric legs.
- The robot now runs by remote control, and the walking clip used a dressed dummy because the cockpit has no working controls.
- Footage stays to flat ground and also shows a switch to a four-limb crawl, while reporters saw an exposed tube frame padded with cut bicycle tires and hands without a grip.
- Unitree said it plans to sell the machine and quoted a 3.9 million yuan entry price, though some outlets report about $650,000, and no ship date or website listing exists.
- The company pitches uses such as moving people or gear on job sites or in disaster zones and asks buyers not to make risky changes or use it in unsafe ways.
