This May, Unitree Technology unveiled its groundbreaking GD01 manned transformable mecha, with a starting price tag of 3.9 million yuan. The mecha made its first public appearance at the 5th Global Digital Trade Expo in September, where it garnered significant attention and numerous inquiries, though sales have yet to materialize. At a recent forum, Wang Xingxing, the founder of Unitree Technology, emphasized that large-scale robots are an emerging trend within the industry. He positioned the GD01 as the equivalent of an off-road vehicle in the realm of robotics, highlighting its specialized design for navigating complex outdoor terrains and its suitability for field missions. Notably, in July of this year, Wang Xingxing and the GD01 graced the cover of Time magazine, further cementing their prominence in the field.
