H2-A Standard L — upper-body humanoid with Inspire DFQ five-finger dexterous hands, 6 DOF + 12 joints per hand

What's in This Configuration

The H2-A Standard L adds full-palm tactile sensing to the ultra-dexterous BrainCo Revo 3 U21 platform. With 21 active DOF per hand (4 fingers × 4 + thumb × 5), it delivers the same exceptional mechanical performance as the U21T baseline — 20 N fingertip pinch force, 70 N full palm grip force, 3 Hz opening/closing speed, and 500 Hz control frequency — but adds visuo-tactile sensing with 130 μm minimum measurable deformation — combining high-resolution tactile feedback with visual deformation tracking. This dual-modal sensing enables the robot to see and feel deformation simultaneously — detecting micro-scale surface changes, visualizing contact geometry, and correlating tactile pressure with visual texture for unprecedented manipulation perception. The wide 12–80V operating range and integrated wrist RGB camera provide power flexibility and visual confirmation. At 61 total DOF with visuo-tactile sensing, Standard L is the definitive platform for visuo-tactile-aware ultra-dexterous manipulation research.

Dual 7-DOF Arms. Industrial-Grade Kinematics. Human-Like Dexterity.

The H2-A Standard L is engineered around two 7-DOF high-performance arms, each driven by low-inertia inner-rotor PMSM motors with crossed-roller and double-row ball bearings. With 600 mm reach and a ~7 kg rated payload per arm (up to ~15 kg peak), it handles precise assembly, heavy pick-and-place, and industrial manipulation research with human-like fluidity. The extra two degrees of freedom per arm provide kinematic redundancy — the arm can maintain end-effector pose while reconfiguring its elbow to avoid obstacles, reach around corners, or optimize for natural motion. Dual encoders on every joint deliver closed-loop precision down to ±0.1 mm.

 

Multimodal Perception & Natural Interaction: Integrating binocular vision with natural language interaction, H2-A enables intuitive and natural human–robot collaboration.

BrainCo Revo 3 U21VT Visuo-Tactile Five-Finger Dexterous Hands — See & Feel What You Grasp

The BrainCo Revo 3 U21VT is a 21-DOF five-finger dexterous hand with visuo-tactile sensing — the most advanced end effector in the H2-A series. It combines the unmatched articulation of the U21T baseline — 4 DOF per finger, 5 DOF on the thumb — with visuo-tactile sensing at 130 μm minimum measurable deformation. This dual-modal capability spans the entire palm and finger surfaces, enabling the robot to detect slip through both tactile pressure and visual deformation, modulate grip force with human-like delicacy, and discriminate object texture, shape, and compliance through synchronized sight and touch. The hand retains the U21T's powerful mechanical performance: 20 N fingertip pinch force, 70 N full palm grip force, 3 Hz opening/closing speed, and 500 Hz control frequency. The wide 12–80V operating range and integrated wrist RGB camera provide power flexibility and complementary visual feedback. At 61 total DOF with visuo-tactile sensing, the U21VT is the definitive platform for researchers pushing the boundaries of visuo-tactile-aware dexterous manipulation.

3-DOF Waist — Expand Your Workspace

The 3-DOF waist joint provides full torso articulation — yaw, pitch, and roll — dramatically expanding the robot's reachable workspace without moving the base. In a seated or standing deployment, the waist allows the robot to turn and manipulate objects on either side, hand objects from one hand to the other across the body, bend forward for floor-level picking, and orient toward humans or workstations. Combined with 7-DOF arms and Revo 3 U21VT visuo-tactile five-finger dexterous hands, the H2-A achieves human-like reach envelopes that cover a full sphere of workspace — ideal for bimanual manipulation, in-hand reorientation, and human-robot interaction research.

Dual Intel Compute — Power for Control & Development

The H2-A Standard L ships with a built-in dual-compute architecture: PC1 runs an Intel Core i5 for real-time platform functionality and motion control, while PC2 provides an Intel Core i7 dedicated to user development. This separation ensures deterministic robot behavior while giving researchers full freedom to experiment. Optional expansion slots (PC3 for NVIDIA Jetson Thor, PC4 for Intel i7 or Jetson Orin NX) future-proof the platform as your AI ambitions grow.

Binocular Vision & AI Perception

A wide-angle humanoid-style binocular camera head delivers a broad field of view for spatial awareness. Paired with an 8-core high-performance CPU + 10 TOPS NPU in the head module, plus the dual Intel compute in the body, it runs visual perception, object detection, and gesture recognition locally — no cloud required. The Revo 3 U21VT wrist cameras add close-up visual feedback, while visuo-tactile sensors provide synchronized deformation data for precision grasping and finger tracking.

Voice Collaboration & Natural Interaction

Array beamforming microphones and high-power speakers enable clear voice capture and synthesis in noisy labs or industrial floors. The open audio framework supports custom wake words, multilingual TTS, and integration with LLMs for conversational command-and-control.

Compact. Industrial-Grade. Desk-Ready.

At just 780 × 444 × 200 mm and approximately 34.4 kg (with battery), the H2-A Standard L fits on a reinforced lab bench or industrial workstation. The compact footprint leaves room for objects, tools, and sensors around the robot. Power via the included upper-body Li-ion battery for ~8 hours of untethered operation, or connect the external power supply for 24/7 continuous use.

 

Comprehensive SDKs and APIs, together with a mature manipulation and perception software stack, enable developers to focus on application innovation while reducing development cycles from months to weeks.

Full-Stack Open Development

Unitree provides a mature, Linux-based robot development framework with open APIs for the underlying system, robotic arms, audio, lighting, and visual control. ROS 2 native support, dual encoders on every arm joint, and hollow internal wiring make the H2-A Standard L a clean slate for reinforcement learning, teleoperation research, and embodied AI. The dual Intel compute handles model training and inference without external hardware.
