G1

Unitree Robotics, known for its humanoid robot G1 and its quadruped robots, has introduced the Dex5, a new five-fingered dexterous robotic hand. Featuring 20 degrees of freedom and 94 highly sensitive touch points, the Dex5 demonstrated fine manipulation skills in a promotional video, signaling Unitree's expansion into advanced robotics components.

As the humanoid robotics race heats up, U.S. giants like Tesla face stiff competition from Chinese firms such as Unitree. Analysts warn that China's manufacturing prowess and supportive policies could enable it to dominate this transformative industry.

Chinese robotics company Unitree focuses on industrial applications over household models due to safety concerns, diverting its efforts toward refining its humanoid robots for safer domestic use in the future.
