Today, Unitree Technology officially unveiled its latest bionic humanoid robot, the Unitree H2.
The Unitree H2 stands 180 cm tall and weighs 70 kg. According to the official description, its overall design closely resembles the human form, offering a more realistic visual appearance. In the promotional video released by the company, the Unitree H2 was even shown wearing clothing, further enhancing its human-like aesthetic.
This robotic model features a total of 31 joints, including 6×2 in the shoulders (6 per arm), 3 in the torso, and 7×2 in the legs (7 per leg), along with 2 additional joints whose functions are not yet disclosed. Compared to the 26 joints found in Unitree's previous R1 model, the joint count has increased by 19%, significantly improving the robot's flexibility.
Although full technical specifications for the Unitree H2 have not been released, the demonstration video clearly shows major improvements in both flexibility and stability over its predecessor. The robot is capable of smoothly performing complex movements such as dancing and martial arts, with fluid, natural motions and highly responsive joint articulation, showcasing its advanced mobility and coordination.
In addition, the Unitree H2 introduces a biomimetic facial design based on the earlier Unitree H1 model. This enhancement brings the robot’s appearance and functionality closer to the humanoid machines often depicted in science fiction films.
