Unitree Robotics has launched an education platform for students to train robot dogs and understand how they operate based on the start-up’s Go2 system, as adoption of these quadruped machines expands from enthusiasts to mainstream consumers.
According to its social media post on Tuesday, Unitree has developed an in-person training course with ready-to-use tools that would enable students to learn the operation, maintenance and applications of a quadruped robot – specifically, the company’s latest Go2 model.
Priced at US$1,600 on Unitree’s website, the Go2 is built with the company’s self-developed 4D lidar – an omnidirectional, ultra-wide-angle scanning technology that allows users, through a dedicated app, to pinpoint a spot where they want the robot dog to move autonomously.
The Go2 also runs the ISS2.0, dubbed the “intelligent side-follow system”, which enables the robot to avoid obstacles and navigate complex terrain, while matching the movement and direction of its owner when walking.
