Unitree's first full-size humanoid. The H1 has been on the Unitree product page since 2023 and is one of the few humanoids with a public list price — the Unitree store listing shows $90,000 with a "contact us for the real price" qualifier and routes buyers to sales. That puts the H1 in a different bucket from Atlas, Figure's humanoids, or Optimus, none of which is sold openly: as of 2026-09-24, Figure 02 is retired, Atlas production units are committed to Hyundai and Google DeepMind, and Tesla has not offered Optimus for sale.
What makes the H1 distinct for an AI-hardware reader: the onboard compute is configurable. Standard configuration ships Intel Core i5 + i7 CPUs (platform functions plus a separate user-development surface), with an optional upgrade to NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX — the same Jetson family that powers a meaningful slice of edge robotics work. The 3D LIDAR + depth camera stack gives the H1 360-degree depth perception out of the box, which makes it a popular research platform for SLAM and locomotion work. Joint torques and the world-record walking speed are documented directly on Unitree's product page.
Payload capacity is not published by Unitree. Runtime is not on the product page either; the consensus across Unitree's store and trade press lands at roughly 1.5 to 2 hours per swappable pack depending on duty cycle. The H1-2 variant (heavier, more arm DoF, slower top speed) is positioned upmarket from the original H1.
