China’s Unitree builds course for students to learn how to train, understand robot dogs

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.

According to Unitree, the graded training course would centre around the Go2 ecosystem and integrate a pathway that connects “simulation, practical training, competition and training projects”, while ensuring the safety of students. Apart from providing training kits and debugging stations, the course would cover the basic maintenance, motion control, autonomous navigation and secondary development of quadruped robots.
