UNITREE G1 Edu U3 Humanoid Robot – Advanced Platform for Research, Development and Robotic Manipulation

The UNITREE G1 Edu U3 is a high-performance humanoid robot platform designed for researchers, developers, universities and ambitious robotics enthusiasts who want to build, test and refine real-world applications. Based on the proven physical platform of the G1 model, the Edu series goes far beyond demonstration use — it is built for active development, algorithm implementation and hands-on experimentation in AI, autonomous navigation and advanced manipulation.

For projects where interaction with the environment matters most, the U3 version delivers a complete and highly capable setup. It combines the advanced kinematics of the U2 version with 29 degrees of freedom in the body and adds two dexterous Dex3-1 three-finger hands. This expands the robot to a total of 43 degrees of freedom, turning it into a versatile humanoid platform ready for gripping, carrying and more complex manipulation tasks. Please note: this hand version does not include tactile sensors.

Why choose the G1 Edu U3?

• Built for R&D: ideal for robotics research, AI development, education and experimental projects.
• Powerful AI computing: expansion port with up to 100 TOPS of computing power for demanding AI workloads.
• Open development architecture: supports both low-level and high-level secondary development for greater control over robot behavior.
• Advanced humanoid mobility: enhanced physical performance, including knee joint torque up to 120 N·m.
• Practical manipulation capabilities: arm payload capacity of up to 3 kg for more demanding experiments.
• U3 configuration: 43 DOF in total, including two Dex3-1 three-finger hands.
• Real application potential: suitable for object handling, logistics research, automation concepts and human-robot collaboration.
• Scalable platform: modular design that can grow along with your project requirements.
• Developer-friendly ecosystem: complete documentation and technical support for advanced implementation work.

Open Architecture and More Computing Power

What sets the G1 Edu series apart is its flexibility and openness to further development. Every model is equipped with an expansion interface backed by 100 TOPS of AI computing power, making it easier to deploy custom vision, control and decision-making systems. With support for both low-level and high-level development, users gain the freedom to work deeply with the platform and tailor robot behavior to their own research goals.

The Edu series also introduces improved physical parameters to support more advanced use cases. Increased knee joint torque and a higher arm payload allow the robot to handle more demanding movement and manipulation scenarios. Whether you are prototyping new control strategies or validating AI-driven robotic behaviors in real environments, the G1 Edu U3 provides a robust foundation for serious experimentation.

Designed for Innovation Without Limits

The UNITREE G1 Edu U3 is an excellent environment for testing bold robotics ideas in practice. It enables universities, laboratories and advanced makers to work on control algorithms, perception systems, motion planning and human-robot interaction in realistic conditions. Thanks to its modular structure and expansion potential, the platform can evolve together with your ambitions — from early prototyping to highly specialized research applications.

If you are looking for a humanoid robot that combines mobility, manipulation and an open development ecosystem, the G1 Edu U3 is a powerful choice for turning theoretical concepts into working solutions.
