The Unitree Go2 represents the new frontier of embodied AI — a powerful fusion of robotics and intelligence that redefines the future of bionic quadrupeds. Designed with state-of-the-art perception, advanced AI-driven locomotion, and robust mechanical performance, the Go2 is engineered to explore, learn, and interact with the world around it.

Unitree Go2 Robot

Unitree’s relentless innovation and technological leadership have led to the creation of the Go2 — an intelligent, agile, and reliable partner for research, exploration, and real-world applications.


Revolutionary Perception with 4D LiDAR

The Go2 introduces the Unitree self-developed 4D LiDAR L1, offering a 200% improvement in recognition performance. With an ultra-wide hemispherical field of view (360° × 90°), a minimum detection distance of just 0.05m, and exceptionally small blind spots, the Go2 is capable of true all-terrain recognition and safe navigation.

Embodied Intelligence: AI + Robot

Powered by GPT-driven intelligence, the Go2 integrates AI with robotics to achieve a new level of decision-making and adaptability. Through large-scale AI simulation training, the robot masters complex gaits including:

  • Upside-down walking

  • Adaptive roll-over recovery

  • Obstacle climbing

  • Agile, stable locomotion in dynamic environments

This makes the Go2 one of the most versatile and intelligent quadrupeds in its class.
