Product Overview

The Unitree Expansion Compute (40 TOPS) is a dedicated AI acceleration module that supercharges your Unitree robot with massive on-board neural network inference capability. Delivering 40 Tera Operations Per Second (TOPS) of AI compute performance, this expansion module enables real-time processing of complex perception algorithms — including object detection, semantic segmentation, depth estimation, SLAM, and behavior prediction — directly on the robot without relying on cloud connectivity or external servers. The module is open to secondary development, providing researchers and engineers with full access to the compute stack, APIs, and development tools. Unitree provides dedicated AI algorithm technical support to help teams optimize, deploy, and debug their custom neural networks on the 40 TOPS platform.

40 TOPS AI Performance
Delivers 40 TOPS of dedicated AI inference performance. Handles multiple concurrent neural networks in real time for perception, planning, and control.
Open to Secondary Development
Full open SDK and development environment. Access APIs, toolchains, and documentation to build, port, and optimize custom AI algorithms for your specific use case.
AI Algorithm Technical Support
Dedicated Unitree technical support for AI algorithm development. Get expert guidance on model optimization, deployment, debugging, and performance tuning.
Dock-Style Form Factor
Compact sled/dock form factor designed for seamless integration with Unitree robot chassis. Secure mechanical attachment and reliable electrical interface.
On-Board Edge Inference
Process all AI workloads on the robot — no cloud dependency, no latency from network round-trips. Essential for real-time autonomous operation.
Multi-Network Concurrency
Run multiple neural networks simultaneously — e.g., object detection + depth estimation + semantic segmentation — without frame drops or latency spikes.

AI Workloads Enabled by 40 TOPS

With 40 TOPS of dedicated AI compute, the Expansion Compute module unlocks a wide range of advanced autonomous capabilities:

Perception
Object Detection & Tracking
Real-time detection and tracking of people, obstacles, and objects in the robot's environment using YOLO, SSD, or custom detectors.
Vision
Semantic Segmentation
Pixel-level classification of terrain, walkways, stairs, and hazards for safe path planning and terrain-aware locomotion.
Navigation
Visual SLAM & Localization
On-board visual SLAM with deep learning feature extraction. Build and update maps in real time without external positioning systems.
Planning
Behavior Prediction
Predict the motion of dynamic agents (people, vehicles) to plan safe, socially aware trajectories in shared spaces.

Secondary Development & Support

The Expansion Compute module is designed from the ground up for developers, researchers, and integrators who need to push beyond factory-default capabilities:

Open SDK & APIs
Full access to compute APIs, inference engine interfaces, and sensor data pipelines. Build applications in Python, C++, or CUDA as supported by the platform.
Model Porting Tools
Toolchain support for converting and optimizing models from PyTorch, TensorFlow, and ONNX formats to the target inference runtime.
AI Algorithm Support
Direct technical support from Unitree AI engineers. Get help with model selection, architecture optimization, quantization, and deployment strategies.
Documentation & Examples
Comprehensive developer manuals, API references, and sample code for common AI tasks. Accelerate development with proven reference implementations.

Physical Integration

The Expansion Compute module features a compact dock-style form factor that slides into the dedicated expansion bay on compatible Unitree robot chassis. The mechanical design ensures secure retention during dynamic locomotion, while the electrical interface provides high-bandwidth data and stable power delivery to the AI accelerator. Installation is tool-free in most configurations, allowing quick swaps between robots or rapid field replacement.

Important Notes
  • The Expansion Compute module is a paid optional accessory. Verify compatibility with your specific robot model before purchase.
  • Secondary development requires programming knowledge in supported languages (Python, C++, CUDA as applicable).
  • AI algorithm technical support covers guidance and troubleshooting. Custom model development remains the responsibility of the customer.
  • Actual inference performance depends on model architecture, precision, batch size, and concurrent workload.
