en.Wedoany.com Reported - GMO AI & Robotics Shoji (abbreviated as GMO AIR), a subsidiary of the GMO Internet Group, announced on June 19 that it has signed an official distributor contract in Japan with Chinese humanoid robot manufacturer Unitree Robotics, and will commence sales from the same day.

Under the contract, GMO AIR will sell Unitree's humanoid robots "G1" and "H1," as well as quadruped walking robots "Go2" and "B2," among other products.

GMO AIR not only offers product sales but also plans to provide one-stop services ranging from implementation support and software development to maintenance and operations. Additionally, leveraging the GMO Internet Group's resources in communications, cloud, security, infrastructure, and financial services, it will offer leasing, installment payment plans, and AI consulting services.

GMO AIR aims to promote robot adoption across a wide range of fields, including airports, logistics, facility management, inspection, security, and construction, with the goal of becoming Japan's largest commercial distributor for the social implementation of humanoid robots.

Unitree Robotics is a robot manufacturer headquartered in Hangzhou, founded in 2016. In addition to selling quadruped walking robots Go2 and B2 globally, it has also launched humanoid robots G1, H1, and R1. In Japan, videos of G1 and H1 performing acrobatics and dances have gone viral on social media, drawing significant attention.

Prior to this, GMO AIR had already utilized Unitree's G1 in its own services, accumulating technical expertise through a "humanoid robot dispatch service" for exhibitions and proof-of-concept (PoC) projects, the "GMO ROBOTS" initiative that learned the running form of the GMO Internet Group's track and field team (Japan Ekiden champions), and airport business verification experiments conducted with JAL Ground Service at Haneda Airport.
