Ok, I want one. Time to take out a second mortgage to pay for it. I wonder if it has sensors on it to keep it from running into my in ground pool. LOL.

I have found there is a big difference between wanting one and actually being able to buy it for advertised price.

Yeah i think they will eventually settle on 10k -ish...especially with the hype.

$10K sounds about right. Seems reasonable, If its something that will be useful all the time. I wonder if it makes a good guard dog?:)

I guess it gets down to functionality versus cost.  The unitree robot only works on relatively flat surfaces. if there are stairs then it will fall down. It can barely handle walking off a gutter based on the video's.  It only has one front facing D435 sensor and short legs so I can't imagine this would be resolved soon.  If it can't handle complex terrain, I will be honest I don't see a lot of advantage to a legged robot that can't handle stairs.  My 3D Printed Dog can't get over anything higher than a couple of inches, and a well designed tank could easily handle that.

I thought I'll bring the thread back to life with some progress I made on my actuator...:)
