Zendure Unveils 'Agentic' AI Home Energy System Ahead of IFA 2026

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Zendure will showcase a new home energy platform called Agentic HEMS at IFA 2026, moving smart-home energy management beyond simple AI scheduling toward systems that can predict, plan and act on their own. The company will present the technology in Hall 2.2, Booth 124, from September 4 to 8.

Three layers work together to run the system automatically

Agentic HEMS is built on three components: ZenPulse, a proprietary large time-series model that forecasts solar generation, electricity prices, household loads and weather; ZENKI AI agents, which turn those forecasts into decisions covering savings, comfort, backup power and safety; and Zen+OS, an open platform that connects those decisions across connected devices in the home.

Hisense Unveils AI-Powered Smart Home OS, Extends UEFA Deal Through Euro 2028

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Hisense used IFA 2026 to unveil V AIOS, a new operating system designed to link televisions, mobile devices and home appliances into a single AI-driven ecosystem, while also confirming it will remain an official partner of the UEFA European Championship through 2028.

V AIOS turns household devices into an AI ecosystem

V AIOS builds on Hisense's existing VIDAA OS and ConnectLife platforms, aiming to connect TVs, phones and appliances so they respond to household habits rather than requiring manual control. The system uses edge AI to process data locally, with Hisense emphasizing privacy and transparency in how it handles user information.

Paired with a new AI Companion Suite, the platform can suggest recipes based on ingredients on hand and automatically select matching oven settings, adjust laundry programs for different fabric types, or regulate room climate according to individual preferences.

Hypershell's Halo Exoskeleton Syncs Four Motors for All-Terrain Walking

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Hypershell unveiled Halo, its flagship full-leg exoskeleton, at IFA 2026, marking the first consumer exoskeleton to coordinate four motorized hip and knee joints as a single system. The first 200 units, sold as the Origin Edition with a unique serial number, are available for pre-order starting at 2,299 EUR, with sales and phased deliveries beginning in November across the United States, Canada, Europe, the United Kingdom and China.

The frame moves with the body instead of against it. A continuous carbon-fiber structure runs from hip to lower leg, letting the four motorized joints share propulsion, weight support, descent control and landing cushioning. An adaptive Fish-Spine joint lets the hip motor track natural hip movement rather than a fixed axis, giving Halo up to 198 degrees of lateral range and 167 degrees of front-to-back motion.

Hypershell Unveils Halo, a Four-Motor Exoskeleton for All Terrains

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Hypershell has launched Halo, a leg exoskeleton priced from 2,299 EUR, at IFA 2026, targeting hikers and outdoor users who need powered support across mixed terrain.

Four motors work as one coordinated system

Halo is built on what Hypershell calls its Unified Architecture, a continuous carbon-fiber frame running from hip to lower leg that links four motorized hip and knee joints into a single system. CEO Kelvin Sun said the company redesigned the entire lower-body power system rather than simply adding motorized knees to an existing hip exoskeleton.

The HyperDrive Pro motor system delivers up to 1,490W of peak power across the leg. Each knee power unit weighs only 170 grams, using a magnesium-alloy housing to keep total weight down.

The lineup includes the TCL TAB A1, TCL TAB A1 NXTPAPER, TCL TAB A1 Plus and TCL TAB A1 Plus NXTPAPER. TCL structured the range around two choices: screen size and display technology.

The 11-inch models are built for portability, with a 6.2mm thin design, 2.1K resolution and refresh rates up to 90Hz. The larger 12.2-inch Plus models step up to 2.4K resolution, a 3:2 aspect ratio and refresh rates up to 120Hz, giving users more room for movies, documents and split-screen multitasking.

Hisense Debuts AI 'Companion Living' Smart Home Vision at IFA 2026

Berlin – September 08, 2026 -- Hisense unveiled its "Companion Living" concept at IFA 2026, introducing an AI system called V AIOS that aims to coordinate kitchen, laundry and climate appliances automatically for users.

V AIOS builds on four core AI capabilities

V AIOS, the next evolution of Hisense's VIDAA OS, is structured around four functions: Sense, Think, Communicate and Execute. The system is designed to detect people, devices and surroundings, interpret context and intent, communicate across devices, and coordinate actions on the user's behalf.

The AI Companion Suite targets three daily routines

Built on top of V AIOS, the AI Companion Suite focuses on Cooking, Laundry, and Air & Energy. In the kitchen, the system is meant to link the refrigerator, oven and other appliances to recommend recipes based on available ingredients and individual food preferences, then guide the cooking process.
