Humanoids

A humanoid is a robot shaped like a person: it walks the same floors, goes through the same doors and works with its hands. Two of ours are in the field, Jože in Slovenia and Tonka in Croatia. They appear at events, welcome guests and talk to people in their own language.

01 · For you

A co-worker who draws every eye.

A humanoid draws attention no advert can buy: at a trade fair, in a lobby, on stage. Our Jože and Tonka have been on television, with the Croatian prime minister and at a marathon. Yours talks about your offer, in the visitor’s language, and answers from your own material.

  1. 01

    Attention you cannot buy

    People stop, take photos and share them. Your brand is in every picture.

  2. 02

    A conversation, not a recording

    The robot listens and answers. Every visitor gets their own answer.

  3. 03

    The technology is our job

    We bring it, teach it the performance and look after updates and repairs.

02 · Where it works

  1. Event, trade fair and stage
    01

    Event, trade fair and stage

    It opens a conference, performs on stage and talks to visitors at the stand. It is the reason people stop. Our operator is always with it.

  2. Hotel, lobby and reception
    02

    Hotel, lobby and reception

    It greets guests on arrival, tells them where the room, breakfast or hall is, and walks them there. It speaks the guest’s language.

    City and shopping centre

    On a square or in a shopping centre it draws people in, presents the offer and points them to the shop, stand or event.

    Tourism and public institution

    At a tourist point, in a museum or at the town hall it tells people what to see, where things are and which procedure is handled where.

    School, university and research

    Pupils and students see robotics live, not just on slides. For research teams it is a real body on which to test walking, grasping and remote control.

    Production and logistics

    It walks the same aisles as the workers, between machines and trolleys. We first try it on one task and only then decide the scope together.

04 · What this is

Why a robot in human form

The world is built for people. Stairs, handles, shelves and counters have the measurements of our bodies. That is why robots long stayed in factories, where the space was fitted to them: a fence, a rail, a closed work cell.

A humanoid turns that around. With legs, arms and a head in human proportions, it goes into the space as it is: up the stairs, through the door, to the shelf. Walking was long the hardest part. Today it rests on balance calculated in real time and motors light and fast enough for the body to catch itself before it falls.

The last step is the head. Cameras and sensors give the robot a picture of the space, language models give it speech: it listens, understands the question and answers. With that a humanoid is no longer an exhibit but a co-worker who welcomes a guest, shows the way and picks up what needs picking up.

Today humanoids walk among people at events, in lobbies and in labs, and the first are being tried out at work in production. The path is always the same: first one task the robot does reliably, then the next.

06 · Why Humanoids

  1. 01No changes to your buildingA humanoid takes stairs, doors and thresholds, because your building is made for people. You build no ramps, rails or floor markers.
  2. 02Attention that brings people inPeople stop at a humanoid, take photos and stay. Your desk, stand or stage gets visitors who would otherwise walk past.
  3. 03Answers that free up your teamThe robot listens and answers from your material, in the visitor’s language. Frequent questions stay with it, your people stay with those who buy.
  4. 04Hands for real workThe largest model lifts up to 15 kilograms at peak and about 7 kilograms continuously. That is the class of a box, so the same body can perform and work.
  5. 05A working robot, without the technical worryWe bring it, set it up, teach it the performance or the task and take care of updates, monitoring and repairs. You get a robot that works.

Frequent questions

Can a humanoid work on its own, without a person beside it?

At events and performances our operator is always with the robot. For permanent installations the scope is agreed up front: what the robot handles alone and when it brings in a person. The line is written down before the robot arrives on site.

How long does it last on one battery?

It depends on the model and on how much the robot walks. For an event we therefore always bring a spare and a charger, so the performance does not hang on one battery. We give the figure for the chosen model with the quote.

Is it dangerous with the robot among people?

The robot has an emergency stop, and the operator sees it at all times and can halt it. Before a performance we agree the area it moves in and the distance to the audience. Those two agreements are part of every installation.

Can we hire one just for a single event?

You can send an enquiry right below. For events we have our own hire page with Jože and Tonka, which sets out what is included. For a permanent installation the path is different: first a site visit, then a description of the task, then a quote.
