RobotWorld 2026 opens on 4 November in South Korea with 402 companies from 17 countries. Rainbow Robotics, Neuromeka and Tesollo are on the programme, which covers humanoid robots, robotic manipulation and artificial intelligence applied to industry.
Running until 7 November 2026 at the KINTEX centre in Goyang, RobotWorld brings together robot manufacturers, component specialists and industrial solution providers. This edition places particular emphasis on physical AI, meaning the technologies that allow robots to interact with their surroundings, and on how robots are integrated into production systems.
Rainbow Robotics RBY and Neuromeka humanoid platforms at RobotWorld 2026
The RobotWorld 2026 programme includes the presentation of the RBY, a mobile humanoid robot developed by Rainbow Robotics. Neuromeka is also among the announced exhibitors, with its EIR and NAMI platforms.
Neuromeka is also presenting its Physical Skill Foundation technology. According to the company, it can handle tasks involving unfamiliar objects and changing environments. The stated aim is to make robotic manipulation easier when working conditions vary.
The show also hosts international participants, including Booster Robotics and PAXINI. A new exhibition area brings together the different building blocks of humanoid robotics: actuators, reducers, sensors, controllers, complete machines and software.
Tesollo DG-5F-S and DG-5F-M robotic hand demonstrations
Manufacturer Tesollo has outlined several demonstrations focused on object manipulation. Its programme includes two versions of the compact DG-5F-S humanoid hand, with 15 and 20 degrees of freedom respectively.
Degrees of freedom describe the range of movements the robotic hand can make. Tesollo is also planning a bin-picking and sorting demonstration using its three-finger robotic gripper.
Another demonstration features two DG-5F-M hands used for bimanual manipulation. An operator’s hand movements are transmitted to the two robotic hands to manipulate objects.
This demonstration relies on teleoperation: the movements are controlled by a human, so it is not a demonstration of fully autonomous manipulation.
DN Solutions: machine tools, collaborative robots and digital twins
RobotWorld 2026 is not limited to humanoid robots. DN Solutions is exhibiting its DVF 5000 machining centre, alongside solutions that integrate collaborative robots.
The company is also presenting digital twin and smart manufacturing technologies. This equipment reflects another side of the show: combining robotic systems with industrial production machinery and infrastructure.
For manufacturing applications, the demonstrations highlight several practical issues, including handling a variety of objects, the possible need for an operator and integrating robots with existing equipment.
International Robot Business Conference: humanoid and physical AI sessions
Alongside the exhibition, the International Robot Business Conference takes place on 4 and 5 November 2026. Its programme includes 36 sessions covering different applications of robotics and artificial intelligence.
A track dedicated to humanoids and physical AI includes a talk by a representative of NVIDIA. Representatives of Qualcomm and Advantech are also scheduled to speak in the sessions on artificial intelligence applied to manufacturing.
RobotWorld 2026 is being held in halls 3 to 5 of KINTEX Exhibition Center 1 in Goyang, South Korea, until 7 November 2026.
