The Unitree As2-W quadruped robot integrates a 150 TOPS high-performance expansion module, enabling real-time on-device processing of large datasets. This capability supports advanced applications in security, inspection, and other fields requiring significant computational power at the edge. The robot also provides a developer-friendly SDK and APIs, facilitating the integration of large AI models for embodied AI interaction and autonomous decision-making.
The As2-W demonstrates improved physical performance, achieving a maximum speed of over 6 meters per second. It can carry a static payload of 150 kg and a continuous walking payload of approximately 16 kg. The robot is designed to navigate challenging terrains, capable of stepping over 80 cm obstacles and traversing 45-degree slopes, enhancing its utility in diverse operational environments.
Constructed from aluminum alloy and high-strength engineering plastic, the As2-W weighs approximately 25 kg with its battery. It features 16 degrees of freedom with industrial-grade crossed roller bearings and low-inertia, high-speed inner rotor PMSM joint motors. The robot offers long endurance, operating for over 3 hours unloaded (covering more than 33 km) and over 2 hours loaded (covering more than 16 km).
The As2-W is equipped with a range of sensors and connectivity options, including Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, an HD camera, and an industrial-grade 64-128 line Ultra-Wide-Angle LiDAR. It also includes an 8-core high-performance CPU, a speaker, microphone, and front light. Optional GPS and 4G connectivity are available, disabled by default and requiring user authorization for activation.
