ROS packages providing robot descriptions and Gazebo simulation for Unitree robots (quadrupeds like Go1/Go2/A1 and humanoids like H1/G1). It enables low-level joint control (torque, position, velocity) in simulation.

Use cases

  • simulate a Unitree Go2 or A1 robot in Gazebo
  • control robot joint torque, position, and velocity in ROS
  • load URDF robot descriptions for Unitree robots
  • develop and test quadruped locomotion controllers in simulation
  • prototype control code before deploying to a real Unitree robot

When to choose

  • you are doing ROS-based development or research with Unitree robots
  • you need Gazebo simulation with low-level joint control of Unitree models
  • you want robot description packages (URDF/meshes) for Unitree hardware

When to avoid

  • you need high-level control like walking in simulation - Gazebo simulation here does not support it
  • you want to control real robots - use unitree_ros_to_real instead
  • you use ROS 2 or newer ROS distributions beyond Melodic/Kinetic
