CES 2025 robot

The 2025 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas showcased groundbreaking innovations in embodied intelligent robots, offering a glimpse into the future of robotics. As one of the largest and most influential tech expos in the world, CES 2025 presented a diverse array of robots designed to integrate seamlessly with artificial intelligence (AI) and deliver cutting-edge solutions across various sectors. The event highlighted robots that offer enhanced capabilities for household chores, commercial services, and more, signaling the rapid advancements in this transformative field.

Innovation in Smart Cleaning Robots

Smart cleaning robots, especially robotic vacuums and floor cleaners, continue to evolve, offering more intelligent and efficient solutions. According to IDC’s Q3 2024 Global Smart Home Devices report, global shipments of smart vacuum cleaners reached 5.01 million units, showing an 11.1% year-over-year increase. In China, the market saw even stronger growth, driven by the government’s trade-in incentives.

At CES 2025, several notable companies introduced new products that push the boundaries of autonomous cleaning technology. For example, Roborock debuted the G30 Space Exploration Edition, featuring a bionic mechanical hand, and the Saros Z70 robot, which replaces traditional lidar with the innovative “StarSight Autonomous System 2.0” that combines 3D ToF technology and RGB cameras for enhanced navigation and mapping.

Other companies such as D9 and Yunling presented new versions of their autonomous cleaning systems, including robotic lawnmowers and vacuum cleaners, all designed with AI-based navigation systems and smart sensors for improved performance in diverse environments. The continuous improvement of smart cleaning robots will further revolutionize household chores, making them smarter and more efficient.

Bionic Robots: Pets and Human Interaction

An exciting trend at CES 2025 was the unveiling of bionic robotic pets, such as MetaCat AI, MetaDog AI, and MetaPanda AI by Elephant Robotics. These lifelike, AI-driven pets are designed with ultra-realistic appearances and powerful AI models that allow them to understand and interact with human language and emotions. Offering a profound “lifelike” interaction, these pets could potentially redefine how we interact with robots in domestic settings.

Humanoid Robots: Progress and Prospects

Humanoid robots, with their human-like appearance and abilities, represent the highest form of embodied intelligence. CES 2025 showcased several new humanoid robots, marking significant progress in this field. The “Xiao Wei” humanoid robot from Weijing Intelligence, for instance, integrates a ViEye stereo vision system with sub-millimeter precision for hand-eye coordination in complex tasks. Meanwhile, the PM01 humanoid robot from Zhongqing Robotics impressed attendees with its upgraded interaction, compatibility, and stability features.

The CASBOT 01 humanoid robot, also introduced at CES, is designed to perform diverse tasks, such as standing, walking, running, jumping, and even household chores like organizing clothes, changing lightbulbs, and screwing bolts. Its versatility positions it as an ideal candidate for applications in smart homes, industrial manufacturing, emergency rescue, and beyond.

Dexterous Hands: The Key to Advanced Robotics

The development of dexterous robotic hands was another highlight of CES 2025. Companies like Star Movement Epoch and Miao Wei Electric demonstrated their cutting-edge robotic hands, such as the “Star Movement XHAND1” and the all-drive dexterous hand from Miao Wei Electric. These robots exhibit advanced features such as high precision, autonomous learning algorithms, and the ability to perform complex tasks such as manipulation, gripping, and assembly.

These dexterous hands are essential for the advancement of humanoid robots, allowing them to interact with their environment more effectively, perform delicate tasks, and adapt to various work scenarios, from industrial applications to everyday household tasks.

The Path Forward for Embodied Intelligent Robots

The advancements in embodied intelligence robots presented at CES 2025 are just the beginning. Humanoid robots, in particular, are poised to play an increasingly significant role in service sectors, from retail and hospitality to healthcare and emergency services. As robotics technology improves, these robots will be able to perform more complex tasks with greater precision, speed, and safety, reducing the need for human labor in high-risk or repetitive jobs.

Future breakthroughs in 3D vision, tactile perception, and AI-powered learning models will unlock new possibilities for robots to navigate and interact with their environments. With the commercial viability of humanoid robots on the horizon, 2025 could be a pivotal year for the mass production of these robots, marking the beginning of a new era in human-robot collaboration.

Conclusion

CES 2025 underscored the transformative potential of embodied intelligence robots across multiple industries. From smart cleaning robots that make household tasks easier to humanoid robots that can interact with humans and perform a wide range of duties, the innovations on display are setting the stage for a future where robots play an integral role in daily life. With continued technological advancements, we are moving closer to a world where embodied intelligent robots are not just tools but partners in our work and personal lives.
