Unitree R1

Unitree R1 is an affordable 25 kg bipedal humanoid with 26 joints and multimodal AI interaction — an accessible entry point into humanoid robotics that Nexon System commissions for research and education.

Last updated: 09 Jan 2026

Overview

Unitree R1 pushes humanoid robotics toward mass accessibility, offering a genuine bipedal platform at a price that opens the field to far more schools, labs and developers. Light and compact at about 1.21 m and 25 kg, R1 makes experimenting with walking humanoids practical rather than prohibitive.

Despite its low cost, the platform is capable. With 26 joints it performs stable bipedal locomotion, while integrated cameras and microphones enable visual and auditory perception, and support for multimodal AI frameworks allows voice and image understanding and interactive behaviours. As an affordable humanoid robot, R1 lowers the barrier to hands-on humanoid development, and as a compact bipedal robot it is easy to handle in classroom and lab settings.

It suits education, research and entertainment, where an approachable, programmable humanoid accelerates learning and experimentation.

Nexon System helps educational institutions and research teams across Southeast Asia adopt R1: commissioning, behaviour and interaction programming, curriculum integration and engineering training, all backed by support. To stand up an accessible humanoid programme, talk to Nexon.
