Unitree G1 Depth Camera

Key Features

• Integrated Depth and IMU: The D435i combines robust stereoscopic depth sensing with an onboard Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). This integration is vital, allowing the G1 to not only perceive its surroundings in 3D but also accurately track its own motion and orientation in space, which is critical for tasks like Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM).
• High-Resolution Depth Data: The camera delivers impressive depth image resolutions, typically up to $1280\times 720$ at 30fps or $848\times 480$ at 90fps, ensuring detailed and high-quality visuals for real-time processing.
• Wide Field of View: With a depth Field of View (FoV) of approximately 86∘×57∘, the camera minimizes “blind spots,” allowing the G1 to cover a significant area for effective obstacle detection and comprehensive spatial awareness.
• Vivid RGB Imaging: Alongside depth data, the camera includes an RGB sensor with a resolution of up to $1920\times 1080$ at 30fps, capturing clear color visual information of the environment.
• Global Shutter Technology: Both the depth and RGB sensors utilize global shutter technology. This feature is essential for robotics as it reduces motion blur, allowing the G1 to capture accurate data even when the robot or objects in its field of view are moving quickly.
• Versatile Performance: Designed to perform reliably in diverse settings, the depth camera ensures the G1 can maintain its operational capacity both indoors and outdoors.
• Seamless Integration: Leveraging the capabilities of the Intel RealSense D400 series, the camera is perfectly optimized for the Unitree G1’s system, providing a foundation for advanced robotic applications like object recognition, complex manipulation, and autonomous navigation.
