Unitree G1 (U5) EDU Ultimate C Robotic Humanoid

G1 (U5) EDU Ultimate C : Next-Level Manipulation with 5-Finger Dexterity

The G1 EDU Ultimate C is the most advanced humanoid platform in Unitree’s G1 EDU series—designed for researchers exploring high-level dexterity, human-robot interaction, and real-world task execution. It features Inspire 5 robotic hands (RH56DFQ) with five fully articulated fingers per hand, totaling 12 individual joints and 6 degrees of freedom per hand.

These hands also integrate tactile sensors, enabling fine grip control and responsive interaction. While the overall degree of freedom (DOF) count shifts to 40, the addition of fully actuated 5-finger hands offers greater expressive movement and object-handling capability than any prior model.

Paired with NVIDIA Jetson Orin 100 TOPS computing power, 3D LiDAR, and integrated depth cameras, the Ultimate C delivers an unmatched combination of precision control, AI-readiness, and mechanical expressiveness.
