What it is
A humanoid built for the classroom
Rise starts with the Unitree R1 EDU and adds Stokes Robotics secondary development on top. The result is a compact, 25 kg humanoid robot set up for education programs, with the freedom for students to write their own code.
Unitree sells the R1 as a Basic version, which is not programmable, and in several EDU configurations that support high-level and low-level development. Rise is offered on all six EDU configurations.
Where Rise works
Built for three kinds of programs
K-12 and CTE classrooms
Students write code and watch it turn into movement on a robot built like a person.
Colleges and universities
A programmable humanoid for robotics, AI, and simulation coursework.
Events and demonstrations
A compact humanoid that moves easily between classrooms and events.
