The “Basic” versions of many of Unitree’s robots are meant to be remotely controlled by humans and as such do not need any training or certification. The robots meant for research and development include basic functionality but are meant to be programmed by the user. We strongly suggest following the included user manuals and safety guidelines when testing new code on a robot, and ensuring nothing can be damaged around the robot should something not behave as expected.

Contact our support services here for questions, or browse the Unitree lineup here.
