# Unitree G1

`UnitreeG1Cfg` configures the bundled 29-joint Unitree G1 humanoid,
including its floating base, standing pose and simulation PD drive defaults.

  <p><b>Unitree G1 in the default joint pose</b></p>
</div>

## Usage

```python
from embodichain.lab.sim import SimulationManager, SimulationManagerCfg
from embodichain_robots import UnitreeG1Cfg

sim = SimulationManager(SimulationManagerCfg(headless=True, num_envs=1))
cfg = UnitreeG1Cfg.from_dict({})
robot = sim.add_robot(cfg=cfg)
```

The catalog ID is also accepted by the shared preview command:

```bash
embodichain preview-robot --robot UnitreeG1
```

## Robot Configuration

| Canonical module | `embodichain_robots.unitree.g1` |
| Vendor | `unitree` |
| Morphology | `bipedal_humanoid` |
| Arm count | 2 |
| Asset | `UnitreeG1Locomotion/g1.usda` |
| Control parts | `locomotion`: 29 joints |
| Base | Floating |
| Initial root height | 0.8 m |
