There is Unitree, runs on Ros. I saw a demo a few days back and looked capable. Hands need to be bought separately though

The Unitree robots look great in videos, kind of suck in reality. The motors in the humanoid (G1) overheat after shaking hands a few times, and the wheeled dog (GO2W) drifts like a broken RC car and constantly topples over in motion.
They also patched the known jailbreak methods early this year, so all newer models lack sensor access unless you pay Unitree massive $$$ for SDK access.
The base Go2 is a fun toy, though. There’s a high level web SDK you can use for free.
Yeah, Unitree SDK being such a marked-up price is frankly kind of antagonistic towards developers
Yes, our goal is to be Unitree-level but US-based so we don't have tariff issues
