One of the world's longest-running consumer electronics and home technology fairs is expected to be dominated by multifunctional robots using artificial intelligence, ranging from home assistants and educational robots to entertainment and garden robots.
IFA Berlin will be held for the 102nd time at Messe Berlin from Friday through Tuesday. This year's theme is "The Future is Now," with artificial intelligence, smart home ecosystems, sustainability, content creation, digital health and mobility at the center of the event.
Turkish companies are also showing interest in the fair, while humanoid robots are set to take center stage.
As part of IFA Next, the "Robots on the Runway" event will be held for the first time this year, bringing humanoid robots onto the runway to combine technology, movement and spectacle. Together with RoboCup, these events will showcase how robots are moving closer to everyday use in homes, the service sector, health care and industry.
Companies taking part include Unitree, AgiBot, Deep Robotics, EngineAI, Dobot Robot, Cozio Robotics and Germany-based NEURA Robotics.
