What it is
A working robot dog, set up for your job before it ships
SHEP starts with the Unitree Go2 and adds Stokes Robotics secondary development on top. The result is a compact quadruped robot that arrives set up for the industry and task it will handle.
Unitree sells the Go2 in several configurations. The Air and Pro run the manufacturer’s built-in functions. The X and EDU support secondary development, and the ENT versions add equipment for industry and public safety work. SHEP is offered on all 11.
Where SHEP works
Built for three kinds of programs
K-12 and CTE classrooms
Students program a walking robot and watch their code move it over real terrain.
Corrections and public safety
A remote-operated robot with live video, and on ENT Plus, a searchlight and voice broadcast.
Industrial inspection
Thermal imaging and gas sensing options for equipment and site inspection work.

Questions
SHEP FAQ
SHEP is built on the same Go2 configurations and includes Stokes Robotics secondary development, set up for the way you will use it. The Unitree Go2 is sold without Stokes development.
Stokes secondary development elevates the robot for a specific industry and job. Depending on how you will use SHEP, it can include curriculum, training, and development that enhances what the robot can do. Tell us where the robot will work and we will match the development to it.
Yes. SHEP is available on the Go2 ENT configurations built for industry and public safety work. ENT Plus adds a 30 W searchlight, red and blue warning lights, and voice broadcast, and ENT MTPTZ adds a thermal imaging gimbal. Stokes Robotics law enforcement packages are non-lethal only.
Unitree lists 1 to 2 hours on the standard 8000 mAh battery and 2 to 4 hours on the 15000 mAh long-life battery. EDU comes with the long-life battery, and the Air and Pro include the required upgrade to a long-life battery plus one extra.
No. The STEMBOTICS curriculum license, onsite setup and training, and online training are optional add-ons. Choose the ones you want at checkout or in your quote request.
