Unitree Technology unveiled a new robotic arm, the Z1, for its quadruped robots and thankfully, it doesn’t require The Force to use. It can quickly be installed on the head of the robot, and be used to pick up objects, open / close doors, pour drinks, fastening screws, or even for a lighsaber duel. The company is not limiting its use to just industrial applications, as it’s also engineered for industrial use.
Available in Air and Pro models, the Z1 features 6° of freedom, collision detection, and the ability to learn tasks when physically guided through the necessary movements, all running on the Ubuntu operating system. Don’t expect these arms to lift much, as they have a maximum lifting capacity of 4.4-pounds and 11-pounds, respectively.

The robotic arm is currently in a stage of rapid development with the evolution and direction of technology. But we hope that it will enter our lives immediately. The current problem is cost control and the improvement of intelligence,” said Wang Xingxing, CEO of Unitree Technology.
