It is about the G1 humanoid robot, developed by the Chinese companyUnitree Robotics. The model that is already on the market combines artificial intelligence with different tasks that imitate the user.

The launch of the Chinese model was rage in Asia. And now the United States Through Walmart it takes the baton and anticipates a great commercial blow. The sale has already begun in its physical stores as well as on its online platform and the value surprised users.
It was expected that with its landing in the United States, the novelty would cost around $30,000 per unit, but no; the supermarket chain offers it in 21,000 and with free shippingas specified on its website.

Months ago, the robot was brought to Argentina when its creators presented it to society walking through Puerto Madero. Several videos went viral on the networks due to their fluid movements and their ability to imitate.
G1 humanoid robot features
This first model of humanoid robot launched on the market by the Chinese is designed to combine precision, autonomy and realism. In fact, its movements are very similar to humans as it imitates them with truly astonishing realism and speed.
The robot was updated dailye with what you learn and thanks to an AI that is also modified daily. He has a dexterous arm strength control with which he can manipulate things. In fact, it can simulate a human hand enough to manipulate different kinds of objects with absolute precision.
According to its manufacturer, the robot is extremely reliable and It has a battery with autonomy for about two hours. It carries 3D LiDAR sensors and depth cameras that give it a 360° panoramic range. These sensors allow you to analyze your space, make decisions in real time and adapt to immediate changes within the environment in which you are located.
The robot copies the natural movements of a human. This naturalness lies in an innovative motion control algorithm that the Chinese company implemented in this model. This algorithm allows the robot adapt to different situations and execute movements with precision and surprising speed.
The G1 has stereo speakers and can modulate any type of voice timbre.
