Industrial Applications

Walker TienKung Pro (TK2301) is a full-size research configuration. The current manual separates its joints, sensors and compute from the other TienKung editions. Research-use conditions and currently released gait-training support limit assumptions about factory deployment.

This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.

Manipulation and Perception

No exact-configuration rated payload verified. Seven joints per arm, six per leg, six per hand, three head and one waist; six-axis force sensing.

All versions: IMU and Intel i7-1355U, 16 GB RAM/256 GB storage. Three RGB-D cameras and voice kit; two Orin AGX 64 GB module(s), each advertised 275 TOPS. Precision and workload matter.

SDK and Integration

ROS2 control interfaces and official C++ deployment/Python training repositories exist. Current guide explicitly limits released gait-training support to Lite/base; Plus/Pro remains marked planned Q1 2026. The elapsed date is not release evidence.

API typeROS2 SDK with official training/deployment forks
LanguagesC++ control library, Python training
ROS supportUbuntu 22.04.4 LTS in hardware table; ROS2 supported. Verify exact SDK/controller revision.
SimulationIsaac Lab 2.1/Isaac Sim 4.5 training and MuJoCo sim-to-sim. Current gait guide supports Lite/base; Plus/Pro compatibility remains an unreleased plan in the inspected guide.
Offline operationExact local/cloud task boundaries not established.
TeleoperationNo exact-model public teleoperation package verified.
Software updatesFirmware availability and support period not established.
DocumentationOpen documentation
Code examplesOpen repository
Integration constraintsInitial research use; commercial application requires compliant secondary development and manufacturer registration. Review research-data sharing/custody terms and the proprietary-data exception.

Safety Notes

Research biped: learned gait transitions, loss of support and emergency states need a supported test area. Manufacturer acceptable-use terms and authorised firmware/repair conditions apply. No exact-model collaborative safety certification verified.
