The company says its first robot, Skywalker I, was built in 69 days and was Sichuan's first commercial humanoid, with more than 90% locally sourced components. Skywalker II, described as a general-purpose full-size humanoid platform, took nine months to develop. EIR's website does not give an exact launch date."]},{"h":"Design and technology","p":["The base Skywalker II is 165 cm tall, weighs 55 kg and has 29 degrees of freedom without dexterous hands. The waist has 3 DoF and each leg 6 (hip 3, knee 1, ankle 2). Peak torque in the thigh joints reaches 320 Nm. The frame uses aerospace aluminum, engineering plastic and rubber, power comes from a 48 V hot-swappable battery with fast charging, and motion control runs on an Intel i9-12900HK.","The half-body version has an adjustable height of 1.35-1.6 m, weighs 103.3 kg and has 17 DoF without hands. It adds an NVIDIA Orin NX Super 16 GB module, an Intel RealSense D435i depth camera, a 2K flexible head display, microphones and optional dexterous hands and six-axis force sensors."]},{"h":"Software and AI","p":["EIR follows what it calls an ELA (Emotion-Language-Action) approach, in which the robot responds to a person's emotions as well as commands. The company says it will open documentation for its motion-control algorithms, a 3D perception SDK and hardware interface protocols. Software updates are delivered remotely."]},{"h":"Applications and deployments","p":["EIR lists human interaction, research and education, industrial inspection and training-data collection. It leads the build-out of a provincial humanoid training ground in Sichuan. No sales figures are given."]},{"h":"Manufacturer","p":["Sichuan Embodied Humanoid Robotics Technology (EIR) is based in Chengdu's Shuangliu district. Besides the Skywalker series it makes the emotion-focused humanoid AiQ and the LingTong quadruped series."]},{"h":"Price and availability","p":["Prices are not published; orders go through sales."]}],"timeline":[["2024-09","EIR founded in Chengdu"]],"faq":[["How much does Skywalker II weigh?","The base version is 55 kg at 165 cm; the half-body version is 103.3 kg."],["How many degrees of freedom does Skywalker II have?","29 in the base version and 17 in the half-body version, excluding hands."],["Who makes Skywalker II?","EIR, Sichuan Embodied Humanoid Robotics Technology of Chengdu."],["How much does Skywalker II cost?","No price is published."]],"sources":[{"title":"Skywalker II product page","publisher":"EIR (Sichuan Embodied Humanoid Robotics Technology)","url":"https://eir.com.cn/skywalker-ii","date":"2026"},{"title":"About EIR","publisher":"EIR (Sichuan Embodied Humanoid Robotics Technology)","url":"https://eir.com.cn/about","date":"2026"}],"updated":"2026-10-10"},"mera":{"rental_with_operator":false,"sale_in_offer":false,"availability":"confirmation_required","shop_url":null},"url":"https://merarobotics.com/blog/humanoids/eir-skywalker-2","inquiry_url":"https://merarobotics.com/en/start?service=purchase&robot=eir-skywalker-2"}
