OlloBot Unveils Emotional AI Companion Robot OlloNi SS1 at IFA Berlin
Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- OlloBot has brought its companion robot OlloNi SS1 to Europe for the first time, showcasing the device at IFA Berlin 2026 from September 4 to 8. The robot is on display at booth H1.2-174 under the theme "Touch. Feel. Connect."
While much of the robotics industry focuses on service bots, home assistants, and task-efficient humanoids, OlloBot is betting on emotional bonding instead. "The essential question is not just what robots can do, but what relationships they can build," said Lyn Fang, founder of OlloBot.
OlloBot positions its robot as a new 'Cyber Pet' category
The company describes Cyber Pet as a category sitting between emotional AI and physical AI, combining smart software with an embodied presence. OlloNi is designed to act as an AI partner that interacts with the physical world, adapts to changing preferences, and builds relationships through ongoing presence and shared experiences.
