Jedi Training Droid The Jedi Training Droids were a model of droid used for various purposes in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant including verbally teaching a Padawan about Force - enhanced abilities and lightsaber practice . While a range of different forms and models existed , the droids were primarily skeletal bipeds , based on a humanoid frame . Housed within the sparring chambers of the Jedi Temple , the droids were activated to act as sparring partners for Jedi Padawans and Knights . Although the training rooms differed in design , several training chambers in the First Knowledge quarter contained statues of Jedi surrounding a sunken floor . The droids were deployed through the chest of these statues and would proceed to duel the Jedi until they were deactivated . Others were made to shoot electricity through their fingertips , in an attempt to replicate Force lightning . The reclusive Jedi technician , Kazdan Paratus was in charge of maintaining and creating new and specialized droids to use in the sparring chambers . Anakin Skywalker was also known to crowd the halls of the Temple with new droids , some of which he did use for sparring practice . Training remotes were another form of droids used and stored in the Temple during the Old Republic . Notable Temple training droids . JTR - 47 .
