Richtech Robotics will showcase its DEX humanoid robot at Automate 2026, demonstrating how industrial robots can collaborate with human workers using AI.

What happened: Richtech Robotics, a Nevada-based robotics company, has been selected as a featured exhibitor in the first-ever Humanoid Pavilion at Automate 2026. The company will operate "The Intelligence Showcase" at Booth #2088, where two DEX humanoid robots will perform live demonstrations—one executing laser engraving work alongside supporting hardware, and another providing an interactive guided presentation to visitors. As a key attraction, DEX will manufacture and hand out precision-carved pendants with custom QR codes linking to live streams of Richtech's robots in action.

Why it matters: The demonstration focuses on Embodied AI and Human-Robot Collaboration, showcasing how advanced physical AI can understand and execute complex, real-time tasks alongside people. Richtech's CEO Wayne Huang emphasizes that the company's technology, which utilizes NVIDIA technology stack, demonstrates this potential for the next generation of human-robot teamwork. This visibility at North America's largest robotics event signals the company's positioning in the industrial automation space.

What to watch: Richtech will also display a Titan autonomous mobile robot in the Humanoid Pavilion as a static demonstration, showing how additional system components integrate into a broader automation ecosystem for material movement and post-production packaging workflows. The company will showcase additional details about its technology stack, including how it uses NVIDIA Isaac Sim for Sim2Real training to evolve DEX from simulation to a functioning physical AI system, at Booth #17060 in the Main Hall.
