Unitree G1 3-DoF waist module — adds pitch & roll to the G1 waist for three-axis torso motion (±155° yaw, ±30° pitch/roll). Fits G1 and G1 EDU.
The Unitree G1 3-DoF waist is the three-axis waist joint module for Unitree's G1 humanoid. It is sold for G1 configuration, replacement and development work.
For labs and developers, it is the waist option behind whole-body motion work on the G1 — posture control during manipulation, a wider arm workspace, and torso-led balance adjustments.
Every standard Unitree G1 ships with a single waist degree of freedom: the torso yaws, but it cannot bend or tilt. The Unitree G1 3-DoF waist module adds the two missing axes — pitch (X) and roll (Y) — on top of the existing yaw axis, turning the waist into a full three-axis joint.
With all three axes live, the G1 can bend forward and sideways, twist through a deep yaw arc, and hold body orientation while the arms work. In practice the torso takes over posture adjustments that would otherwise cost steps: the robot can shift its balance and extend its arm reach without re-positioning the legs. Unitree's G1 EDU specification lists the waist joint movement space as Z ±155°, X ±30°, Y ±30°.
Unitree offers the G1 with one to three waist degrees of freedom, and the additional two axes are the option listed for the G1 EDU. The Unitree G1 3-DoF waist module is that three-axis waist, and it fits both the standard G1 and the G1 EDU.
