Industrial Applications
Editorial: original 43 kg TienKung research platform demonstrated running inApril 2024. LegacyROS 1 documentation supports historical control study; its 20-joint body andwalking-runtime condition differ from later generations. Current support and orderability are unknown.
This editorial assessment concerns industrial buyer readiness. It is not an independent performance test.

Manipulation and Perception
20 body joints: arms 4×2, legs 6×2. Seven-joint arms with 4 kg tool rating, head, hands and force sensors are optional; no verified rating for default four-joint arms. No payload scalar assigned.
Original Lite manual base 4 RGBD/IMU and AGX Orin 64 275 TOPS; launch mentions 550 TOPS and force sensing. These are dated configuration differences, not all standard hardware. Intel x 86 10-core 12-thread, 16 GB/256 GB, up to 4.7 GHz. Exact shipped revision must match.
SDK and Integration
Legacy Lite catkin body-control/remote interfaces and URDF/CAD. Historical manual Ubuntu 22.04.4 / ROS 1. Official Lite URDF and Gazebo descriptions; controller/firmware and licence mapping must match. Confirm exact model, compute, middleware, firmware and licence. WiseKaiWu Agent root licence requires prior written authorisation. Website privacy policy excludes robots and cloud products.

Safety Notes
No exact signed EU declaration, independently tested stopping/fall envelope, safety integrity rating or validated human-collaboration mode inspected. Provide appropriate test supervision and physical fall/stop protection according to the delivered manual. Capability demonstrations are not a safety assessment.
Compliance and Certificates

Original TienKung mother-platform launch ↗
Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center / X-Humanoid · Published Apr 27, 2024 · Accessed Nov 2, 2026
April 27, 2024 launch: 163 cm, 43 kg; manufacturer describes stable running at 6 km/h, 550 trillion operations/s, IMU, 3 D vision and six-axis force sensing. Running demonstration is not a guaranteed maximum or endurance test. Later Lite documentation has different standard/optional compute and camera specifications.
