Running the model on Go2 — deployment and environment setup question

[MuXiangWen]

Hi, thank you for your great work!
I have two questions about deploying the model on the Unitree Go2 robot:

1、I’d like to deploy the well-performing model on the Go2 and let it move around in my specific environment.
Do I need to model my environment and perform additional training for adaptation?

2、Currently, I’m running the model on my own computer and communicating with the Go2 via an Ethernet cable.
To enable large-scale movement in the environment, should I deploy the model directly on the Go2’s onboard computer instead?

Thanks in advance for your help!

1. No need to train with real-world data.
2. No. Just use wireless connection. If you prefer high-bandwidth, you could mount a router on Go2.

Thanks a lot！There are other questions:
Do I need to plug in an external Wi-Fi adapter for the Go2 to connect wirelessly? If so, could you please recommend a compatible adapter?

In your demo videos, the Go2 seems to use two cameras. Could you explain the roles of these two cameras respectively, and how they should be properly mounted on the robot?

1. We use an external TPLINK AX900 wifi adapter.
2. Only the upper camera is used. You can see from the image that the lower camera has no connection with the computer.

Thank you for your patience and clear explanation.

Is it necessary for the camera position to match yours exactly? If so, could you tell me how you purchased your camera mount or how it can be 3D printed?

Thank you！！

For actual deployment, is it necessary to use an Intel RealSense D400 series camera? I currently only have a RealSense D435i, which is officially recommended by Unitree.
