The advances in robotic locomosotion have increased interest in quadruple and humanoids. Yushu Technology Co., who trades as units robotics, allegedly raised an unloaded amount of series C funding last week, assessing it to about 12 billion yuan, or $ 1.7 billion in the US.
Hangzo, China-based Company In 2016, a person has increased to over 1,000 employees, noted by Wang Jinging, founder and CEO of Uniter Robotics at the 2025 Summer Davos Forum in Tianjin, China. The unit also claimed that it had reached 1 billion yuan ($ 140 million) in the annual revenue.
Wang admitted that mass deployment Legged robot It has not happened yet, but he said that technology development and continuous improvement should be aligned with the demand of the market, As Technology in AsiaWang also said that the unit expects growing competition in the leg robot market.
Unitary focuses on affordable robots
United robots are known to be cheaper by up to 50% than other systems, launch $ 16,000. He has found traction in education, research and development and inspection markets of facilities.
In May 2025, Unit Exhibited Robotics Summit in Boston and G1 Humanoids at Expo, and its robots Participated In his first boxing match. It has described the H1 system as its “first Universal Humanoid Robot”, which is with a constant over-the-air (OTA) software update.
In addition to its quadruple robots, the units are Go-2-W developedWhich combines four legs with wheels to work in more terrain types. The company also sells Z1 Robotic weapons and L2 4D lidar scanner, as well as components and services.
Unlike many others identicalThe unitary systems are already available for purchase. Wang said that the Artificial Intelligence Unitary Humanoids and Quadrupades will help learn new behavior to widen cases of use in industries.
Investors still fast on humanoids
Chaina Mobile Fund, Tensent, Alibaba, Ant Group, Gali Capital, Hongshan Capital, and Zinciu Capital LED Unit’s Series C RoundThe company said. Existing shareholders also participated, and credited the unitary dancing robot at China’s Spring Festival Gala to stimulate the interests of investors. Some estimates put the round in $ 97.6 million.
“Our ultimate goal AI-operated robots have to do hard work for humans, but before it is worthy, participating in performance allows us to demonstrate real technological progress and generate some commercial values,” Said Wang earlier this month.
Unitree can use funding to expand production and refine its software, wrote late post, Company There are also plans to target consumer and domestic markets.
As Humanoids can enter the market and in which numbers, Humanoid Robot is a market size forecast vary widelyThis total market can exceed $ 5 trillion by 2030, Predictive Morgan Stanley. Other are more ConfusedResearch insight Said The market can reach $ 4 billion by 2030.
In comparison, Boston dynamics When it was a value of $ 1.1 billion Acquired By Hyundai Motor Group in 2021, and Chitra AI Is In conversation $ 1.5 billion in new funding in evaluation of $ 39.5 billion.
Whereas Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said that optimus will make Humanoid Tesla “$ 25 trillion company,” Milan Kovak, Optimus Development, ” Announced This month he is “going abroad to spend more time with family.”
