Strengths and trade-offs
Our analysisStrengths
Enough to walk, balance and follow remote control out of the box.
Keeps the basic robot cheap.
Uses little power.
Trade-offs
Not built for heavy AI work, which is why Unitree sells an add-on computer.
Unnamed, so buyers cannot compare it with other robots.
On the basic versions, buyers are not given access to program it.
Why robot makers choose it
Our readMost of what a robot does from moment to moment, such as staying upright, needs fast and reliable computing but not AI muscle. A plain processor does that cheaply, and those who want more can add it.
This is our reasoning from the public facts. No maker has confirmed it.
