UBTECH Walker Tienkung
A humanoid series for research and education teams. It suits programmed experiments; editions differ, so confirm the supplied functions and hardware before comparing demonstrations.

test track
Three proposed tasks. Ten attempts at each suitable task, with the outcome, time and human help recorded. Confirm the exact robot, software and safe setup first. These tasks are not evidence that this robot can do them.
Complete one documented movement or manipulation task
Proposed task. 0 of 10 attempts run.
Repeat the task from the same starting setup
Proposed task. 0 of 10 attempts run.
Record all help needed to start and finish
Proposed task. 0 of 10 attempts run.
Pick a square to see what each attempt will record.
We will record the outcome, time, control mode, human help, safety stops, exact hardware and software, conditions and full video.
Proposed attempt; not run Only proceed if the exact unit supports the task and the setup is suitable. Keep remote control, scripted operation and autonomous operation separate. A completed attempt alone does not prove autonomy.What each square will show

Keep the conditions visible
Name the control mode, surface, object or prompt and every intervention. Ten attempts are an initial result, not proof of long-term reliability.

know?
Separate our own tests from published claims and the limits of the evidence. The counts below describe records, not performance or confidence scores.
Tested by ROBODROMO
We have not physically tested this robot. No performance score or measured attempt is available.

What the evidence supports.
Capability and readiness are separate. These written findings are not a numerical rating or a physical test.
Capability
What can it actually do?
The specific maker claims and any independent observations are listed below. We have not run our own task tests on this robot.
Read the source-based assessmentReadiness
Could you use it in real life?
Intended use: Research and education motion. Dependable everyday use has not been established by the evidence reviewed. The three model identifiers must retain their joint and sensor distinctions. One family verdict would hide configuration gaps.
Read the source-based assessmentA clear limit
This is a research profile based on the sources below, not a hands-on test. Maker claims remain attributed to the maker; they do not prove repeatable performance in your home or workplace.
02 / Can it actually do it?
The claims, with their context.
The wording below keeps each source’s limits. A demonstration, a maker’s claim and a repeatable real-world result are different things.
The V2.0.7.x manual lists TK2301 Embodied Intelligence with seven joints per arm and dexterous hands in its standard configuration. TK2101 and TK2201 list four joints per arm, with a slash for dexterous hands; that mark alone should not be treated as a complete shipped packing list. Confirm the supplied model and end effectors.
Source 1The same manual lists head, waist and rear RGB-D cameras for TK2201 and TK2301, and a slash for TK2101; the two specified versions also list a microphone array and speaker. This describes equipment in the documented configurations, not tested perception or speech performance.
Source 1All three versions in the manual list Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and ROS. The listed development compute differs: one Orin AGX 64 for TK2201, two for TK2301 and a slash for TK2101. Software access and the delivered hardware may depend on the order and revision.

Meet UBTECH Walker Tienkung
UBTECH manual V2.0.7.x identifies Walker Tienkung TK2101, Voice & Vision TK2201 and Embodied Intelligence TK2301 separately. This series entry is not evidence that their hardware, functions or parts are interchangeable.
Further assessment notes
Setup, support and daily use
04 / Living with it
Right robot, right expectations.
What ownership could involve
Designed for research and education; verify training, configuration, developer skills, connectivity, data handling, maintenance, warranty and local support. The older V2.0.4.x manual restricts use to adults and warns users to keep clear of moving limbs and use a lifting device. Confirm the applicable current manual. No public price or UK availability verified.
Support, software and repairs
UBTECH instructs users to match the manual to their delivered device. Older V2.0.4.x pages are explicitly unmaintained; do not silently use their procedures as current. Confirm the edition-specific numerical sheet, safety training, lifting equipment, SDK access, repair restrictions and warranty. Official documentation is a useful support route but does not make every edition’s functions identical.
Questions still open
What needs checking before you decide.
- No footage reviewed; task completion, autonomy and recovery remain unassessed.
- The three model identifiers and their sensor and joint differences must remain distinct.
- Home-service applications on the product page are prospective; they do not establish a supplied home assistant.
- No parts interchangeability established.

Our filmed attempts will appear after testing. Existing footage below keeps its original description and limitations.
