IFA is all about technology and innovation, with companies from around the world presenting their visions for the future.
In 2026, many of those visions include humanoid robots, and companies brought plenty of them to Berlin.
Across the exhibition halls, visitors repeatedly came across robots walking, waving, interacting with crowds or demonstrating individual tasks, with some being presented to European audiences for the first time.
"Alongside artificial intelligence, robotics is one of the key future topics at IFA 2026," Leif Lindner, CEO of IFA Management GmbH, said. He pointed to humanoids, physical AI and robotic systems for the home as examples of how quickly the technology is developing.
But beyond simply showing that robots can walk, talk or wave, companies are increasingly trying to demonstrate what they could actually be used for. With the trade fair drawing to a close, Euronews gathered some of the robotic highlights from this year's IFA.
