Unitree H2 Plus ULTIMATE-C Humanoid Robot

A humanoid can walk across a stage and still be unable to tell a ripe fruit from a stone. The Unitree H2 Plus ULTIMATE-C Humanoid Robot is aimed at that gap. It puts a full-size body behind two hands that feel what they hold, so a research team can study contact instead of guessing at it.

The Unitree H2 Plus ULTIMATE-C Humanoid Robot is available through this page, by quotation.

Background

Unitree and the H2 Plus lineage

Unitree Robotics is a Hangzhou-based maker of legged and humanoid robots. Its machines are common in university labs, in integrator workshops and in corporate research groups that need hardware they can program themselves. The H2 Plus continues that line with a larger frame and a stronger focus on embodied AI.

Unitree announced the H2 Plus on June 1, 2026 as the first humanoid robot reference design built on the NVIDIA Isaac GR00T development platform. The robot is therefore meant as a base for teams building learned behaviors, not as a finished appliance. The family comes in several configurations that share one body and differ mainly in the hands and the compute package: Standard, SMART, and the ULTIMATE A to E and N variants.

Where the ULTIMATE-C sits

The ULTIMATE-C is the tactile three-finger configuration. It carries two Dex3-1 hands, each with three fingers, 7 degrees of freedom, a mass of 650 g and 33 tactile sensors, plus an RGB camera at each wrist. The idea is fine manipulation with contact feedback: the controller can read how hard a finger presses and where, then adjust the grip.

The body underneath is the common H2 Plus platform. It stands 1820 mm tall and has 31 joint motors in the body. The frame is built from aerospace-grade aluminum, titanium alloy and high-strength engineering plastics, and it is cooled by air. Buyers who do not need touch sensing can look at the Unitree H2 Plus Standard Humanoid Robot, and the whole family is gathered under Unitree H2 Plus.

What makes the ULTIMATE-C different from the other H2 Plus versions?

The body is shared across the family, so the difference lies in the hands and in what they report. The ULTIMATE-C uses the Dex3-1 hand with three fingers and 33 tactile sensors per hand. A hand without touch sensing can close on an object, but it cannot tell the controller whether the object is slipping or being squeezed. With contact feedback, a learning policy has a signal to train against, and a teleoperator's demonstrations carry more information.

Other configurations take different routes. The Unitree H2 Plus ULTIMATE A Humanoid Robot and the Unitree H2 Plus ULTIMATE-B Humanoid Robot pair the same body with different hand packages, and the Unitree H2 Plus SMART Humanoid Robot is the version to review if onboard compute is your main question. Figures in this article belong to the ULTIMATE-C and should not be carried over to those pages.

What does the body offer a manipulation team?

Manipulation is a whole-body problem. The arms reach a maximum joint peak torque of 120N.m, the legs 360N.m, and the arms carry a rated 7 kilograms with a peak of 15 kilograms. That is enough to work with real objects such as crates, tools and tray loads, not only light props.

Perception starts at the head, where a binocular camera with a 140° horizontal and 102° vertical field of view uses a global shutter, which avoids the skew that a rolling shutter adds to fast motion. The wrist cameras in the hands add a close view of the grasp. Computing is split: an Intel Core i5 handles platform functions and an Intel Core i7 is left to the user for development, so research code does not compete with the machine's own housekeeping.

Who is the Unitree H2 Plus ULTIMATE-C for?

University and institute labs are the natural first group. They study grasping, in-hand adjustment and learning from demonstration, and they need tactile data from a hand that is part of a walking body.

Integrators and corporate R&D groups are the second. They want to test whether a humanoid with touch can handle a real task before committing to a program, and the Isaac GR00T workflow, with open models and simulation frameworks, gives them a defined route from data to deployment.

Teams that only need locomotion, a perception platform or a lower-effort entry can start with the Standard version of the H2 Plus and keep this configuration for the point where contact sensing matters. Educators and demonstration centers can also use the robot, provided someone on the team is ready to program it.

What is the Unitree H2 Plus ULTIMATE-C used for?

1. Tactile manipulation research: Study grip force, slip and contact using 33 sensors in each hand.
2. Learning from demonstration: Record operator motion with touch signals and train policies on the combined data.
3. Simulation-to-real development: Use the Isaac GR00T tools, open models and reference workflows to move from data to deployment.
4. Object handling trials: Test reaching and carrying within the rated 7 kilograms and peak 15 kilograms arm payload.
5. Human-robot interaction studies: Work with the array microphones, speakers and wide-angle head camera in shared spaces.
6. Teaching and demonstration: Give students a full-size humanoid with a handheld controller and a remote emergency stop.

You can request it through this page. The cost is given in a quotation that reflects your configuration, quantity and destination, so no price is shown here.

Summary

The question behind the ULTIMATE-C is whether a humanoid can feel what it is doing. A full-size body of 1820 mm and 31 joint motors, a rated 7 kilogram arm payload, a wide-angle head camera and two hands with 33 tactile sensors each give a research team a platform that answers it with data. The Isaac GR00T route, a three-hour battery and the included remote controller and emergency stop make it practical to run in a lab. If that is the work you have in mind, this page is the starting point.
