SUMMARY:

 

Nylo is IntBot’s flagship social humanoid robot, designed for fully autonomous human interaction in crowded public environments. It became the first robot in history to operate an entire CES booth alone, greeting visitors, answering questions, navigating crowds, and managing social dynamics without human backup.  

 

EDITORIAL:

 

Nylo represents a major shift in robotics: from digital AI → physical social agents.  

Unlike industrial humanoids focused on lifting or locomotion, Nylo is built for conversation, social awareness, and public‑facing service roles.

 

At CES 2026, IntBot removed all human staff from its booth. Nylo handled:

 

- Greeting visitors  

- Reading social cues  

- Initiating conversations  

- Answering complex questions  

- Managing unpredictable crowd flow  

 

— all unscripted, unassisted, and fully autonomous.  

 

Nylo had already proven itself at NVIDIA GTC 2025, where it served as the official AI information desk, interacting with thousands of attendees.  

 

This robot is not a demo toy — it is a commercially deployed social‑AI agent already working in hotels and conference centers.
