x86 computer, chip not named
A standard PC-style computer, using the same family of chips found in most laptops and desktops. In the Walker S2 it works alongside an Nvidia Jetson Orin, which handles AI work. UBTech's documentation lists the pair as the robot's computing and says the x86 side runs Ubuntu Linux, but does not name the chip maker or model.

Strengths and trade-offs
Our analysisStrengths
Runs ordinary computer software without changes.
Familiar to engineers, with plenty of tools and help available.
Leaves the AI-heavy work to the Jetson, so each computer does what it is best at.
Trade-offs
The chip is not named, so its power cannot be compared with other robots.
x86 chips usually use more power than the small Arm chips in many robots.
Two computers mean more parts, wiring and heat inside the robot.
Why robot makers choose it
Our readMuch of a robot's everyday control software was written for ordinary PCs. Keeping a standard x86 computer for that work and adding an Nvidia board for AI is a common, low-risk way to build a humanoid's brain.
This is our reasoning from the public facts. No maker has confirmed it.
Robots using it
This list covers only the robots researched so far. A robot missing here may still use this part.
