Overview

The Unitree Dex3-1 is a three-finger, force-controlled robot hand used with the Unitree G1 humanoid. It carries 7 degrees of freedom: 3 joints in the thumb and 2 each in the index and middle fingers; its 6 direct-drive and 1 geared micro brushless joints run with hybrid force and position control. It weighs 710 g, has ±2 mm fingertip repeatability and a 500 g load.

The optional tactile array carries 33 sensors per hand. The Dex3-1 is the hand with the widest support in Unitree's software repositories: a unitree_sdk2 example, xr_teleoperate teleoperation, Isaac Lab tasks, a LeRobot configuration and a URDF model are published. As the official distributor of Unitree Robotics in Turkey, Robotlar.org handles Dex3-1 supply, with a G1 or on its own, through a corporate quotation.

Key Advantages

Three Fingers, Seven Joints

The Dex3-1 carries 7 degrees of freedom: 3 in the thumb and 2 each in the index and middle fingers.

  • (1) The thumb joints rotate from -60° to 60°, -35° to 60° and 0° to 100°.
  • (2) The index and middle finger joints range from 0° to 90° and 0° to 100°.
  • (3) In the flat position the hand measures 175 x 88 x 77 mm and weighs 710 g. The dimensions in the image come from the manufacturer's product page.

Hybrid Force and Position Control

The hand has 6 direct-drive and 1 geared micro brushless joint, all force-controlled.

  • (1) With hybrid force and position control the hand tracks position in free motion and force in contact.
  • (2) The manufacturer publishes ±2 mm fingertip position repeatability.
  • (3) The load is 500 g (palm down and up); peak power is 400 W for 3 seconds.

Joint Motors: The F-1515 Series

The manufacturer publishes two micro joint motors: the F-1515-108 (0.76 N·m ideal, 23 rad/s, 45 g) and the F-1515-214 (1.498 N·m ideal, 11 rad/s).

  • Both measure 34.8 x 23.1 x 23.3 mm, run 1000 Hz control, have absolute encoders and take a 12 to 24 V supply.

Optional Tactile Array: 33 Sensors

The G1 page states that a tactile sensor array can optionally be installed on the Dex3-1.

  • (1) There are 33 sensors in total in 9 arrays per hand: three 2x2 arrays in the palm, three 2x2 on the pads and three 3x1 at the fingertips.
  • (2) The range is 10 g to 2,500 g and the damage threshold 20 kg.
  • (3) The G1-D page lists the hand as two options, without and with tactile sensing.

A Ready Software Path on the G1

The Dex3-1 is the hand module with the widest support in Unitree's software repositories.

  • (1) unitree_sdk2 contains a G1 Dex3 example and the hand messages (HandCmd_, HandState_).
  • (2) The xr_teleoperate tool runs XR teleoperation with the --ee dex3 option.
  • (3) unitree_sim_isaaclab contains Dex3 tasks and unitree_lerobot a Dex3 configuration; the unitree_ros repository has the URDF model.

Which Robots Use It?

Unitree states that the Dex3-1 can be used with the G1 and publishes an official removal and installation guide for the G1 Flagship A and B versions.

  • The G1-D page lists the 3-finger hand with no-tactile and tactile options.
  • The H2 and R1 robot pages also list a 3-finger hand option; the Dex3-1 product page does not name these two robots itself.

Which robot for which job?

The Unitree Dex3-1 is a candidate for all of these jobs; in each scenario our catalogue also holds other bodies that can do the same work. The right robot follows from the job itself and the delivery timeline.

Manipulation and teleoperation with the G1

The lab runs XR teleoperation on the G1 with the Dex3-1, records demonstration data with the unitree_lerobot configuration and trains the policy with Isaac Lab tasks. Because this path is ready in Unitree's repositories, setup time shortens.

Dex3-1: Frequently Asked Questions

The most common questions about the Unitree Dex3-1.

What is the Unitree Dex3-1?

The Unitree Dex3-1 is a force-controlled robot hand with 7 degrees of freedom across three fingers: thumb 3, index 2, middle finger 2 joints. It runs hybrid force and position control with 6 direct-drive and 1 geared micro brushless joints.

Which robots is the Dex3-1 compatible with?

Unitree states that the Dex3-1 can be used with the G1, and there is an official removal and installation guide for the G1 Flagship A and B. The G1-D page lists the 3-finger hand with no-tactile and tactile options; the H2 and R1 pages also list a 3-finger hand option.

Does the Dex3-1 have tactile sensing?

Optionally, yes. The tactile array carries 33 sensors in total in 9 arrays per hand (palm, pads and fingertips); the range is 10 g to 2,500 g. The G1 page describes the array as optional.

How much does the Dex3-1 weigh and how much load can it carry?

It weighs 710 g (0.71 kg) and measures 175 x 88 x 77 mm in the flat position. The load is 500 g (palm down and up); peak power is 400 W for 3 seconds.

Which interface does it use?

USB 2.0 with 1000 Hz communication. Supply is 12 to 58 V; at 58 V the static current is 0.2 A, and the maximum current is 10 A.

Is there teleoperation and simulation support?

Yes. Unitree's xr_teleoperate tool supports the Dex3-1 with the --ee dex3 option; unitree_sdk2 has a G1 Dex3 example, unitree_sim_isaaclab has Dex3 tasks, unitree_lerobot has a Dex3 configuration and unitree_ros has the URDF model.

How do you choose between the Dex3-1 and the Dex5-1?

The Dex3-1 has three fingers, 7 DoF and weighs 710 g; the software path for the G1 is ready. The Dex5-1 has five fingers, 20 DoF (16 active) and weighs 1,100 g; its fingertip force is 10 N and its load reaches 4.5 kg. If the full range of human objects has to be grasped with five fingers, the Dex5-1 stands out; if a quick start on the G1 is needed, the Dex3-1 does.

How is the Unitree Dex3-1 sourced in Turkey and what does it cost?

Robotlar.org is the official distributor of Unitree Robotics in Turkey. List prices are not published for Unitree products; the price is set in a corporate quotation by left or right hand, the tactile array, quantity and whether it is bought together with a G1.
