Robots are no longer just efficient machines, but now they are agile performers who can turn over and jog.
For example, consider Unitree, a Chinese robotics company that makes headlines with incredible G1 humanoid robots. You may have seen it Dance with humans Or I remembered its predecessor, the H1. The H1 surprised us with the backflow using an electric motor.
But now, the G1 has taken things to a whole new level. I've mastered the side flip.

Reflux heritage
Remember when Unitree's H1 robot used an electric motor to perform a backflip and shocked us all? Well, they notched it in the G1. Approximately 4 feet tall and 3 inches, this tiny dynamo doesn't just follow in the footsteps of its predecessors. It's jumping up to the side.

Side flip feeling
You heard it right. The G1 pulled out a flip on the side that stood up. This is an even more challenging feat than regurgitation. It's not just the flip itself. It's truly an amazing balance and control – no errors or malfunctions, no pure robotic bounty. This incredible agility is made possible by the G1's advanced specifications. This includes 23 degrees of freedom, a maximum torque of about 88 pound-ft. and a compact design weighing around 77 pounds, allowing you to perform complex movements with accuracy and stability.
