Unitree B2-Wis the wheeled variant of the B2 industrial-grade quadruped robot from Unitree Robotics. It combines powerful leg actuation with detachable or hybrid wheels for superior efficiency on flat surfaces (higher speeds and longer range) while retaining strong all-terrain capabilities for stairs, slopes, and obstacles. It is designed for industrial inspection, security, logistics, exploration, and heavy-payload tasks.
Key Technical Specifications
Dimensions: Standing ≈ 1098 mm × 550 mm × 758 mm; Prone/Lying ≈ 950 mm × 550 mm × 450 mm.
Weight: ≈ 75–85 kg (including battery, depending on configuration).
Max Speed: Up to 15 km/h (≈ 4.2 m/s) on wheels/flat terrain (higher speeds possible in special configurations; safety-limited in practice). Legged mode retains high dynamic performance similar to B2.
Wheel Specs: Diameter 225 mm; Max wheel torque 40 N·m; Max wheel speed 50 rad/s.
Terrain Capabilities: Max obstacle crossing and stair climbing (20–25 cm steps, up to 40 cm forward in some modes); Slope angle > 45°; Excellent adaptability on grass, gravel, slippery, or uneven surfaces.
Endurance: Unloaded ≈ 25–30 km; With 40 kg load ≈ 25 km (significantly improved efficiency on flat/hybrid terrain compared to pure legged B2).
Operating Temperature: -20°C to 55°C.
Ingress Protection: IP67 (dust and water resistant).
Computing: Standard Intel Core i5 (platform) + Intel Core i7 (user development). Optional upgrades (additional i7 or NVIDIA Orin NX modules).
Sensing: Typically includes 3D LiDAR, depth cameras, and optical cameras (varies by config, e.g., 32-channel LiDAR option).
Interfaces: Multiple 1000M Ethernet, USB 3.0, power outputs (12V, 5V, 24V, BAT).
Other Features: Hybrid wheel-leg mobility, strong joint torque (≈ 360 N·m), continuous OTA updates, full SDK support, and high terrain adaptability.
Note: The B2-W excels in efficiency and speed on roads/flat areas while maintaining the B2’s rough-terrain prowess. Wheels improve endurance and reduce energy consumption on suitable surfaces.
