Unitree G1 FAQ
GiGi is built on the G1 EDU and includes Stokes Robotics secondary development, set up for the way you will use it. The Unitree G1 is sold without Stokes development, as the Basic version or as a G1 EDU configuration.
The G1 EDU can. Every EDU configuration includes a 100 TOPS computing unit and supports high-level and low-level secondary development. According to Unitree, the Basic version does not support secondary development.
EDU Plus upgrades the waist from 1 to 3 degrees of freedom and each arm from 5 to 7, for up to 29 degrees of freedom before hands. Both can be ordered with dexterous hands.
Unitree lists about 2 hours of runtime from the 9000 mAh quick-release battery. A spare battery keeps the G1 running through longer sessions.
