Addverb Technologies Showcases Made-in-India Humanoid Robot ‘ELIXIS-W’ at AI Impact Summit 2026

Greater Noida-based Addverb Technologies unveiled its made-in-India wheeled humanoid robot ‘ELIXIS-W’ at the AI Impact Summit 2026 held at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. The showcase highlighted India’s growing capabilities in AI-powered automation and advanced robotics manufacturing.

Made-in-India Humanoid Steals the Spotlight

Built entirely by Indian engineers, ELIXIS-W attracted significant attention at the summit for its industrial-first design philosophy. Unlike conventional bipedal humanoids focused on research or experimental mobility, ELIXIS-W prioritizes stability, efficiency, and real-world deployment in warehouses and manufacturing environments.

The robot is specifically engineered for intralogistics and warehouse operations, emphasizing human-robot collaboration in dynamic industrial settings.

Designed for Warehouses and Industrial Use

ELIXIS-W features a wheeled base instead of legs, enabling faster and more stable long-distance movement. The robot can travel at speeds of up to 1.5 meters per second and handle payloads of up to 10 kilograms, making it well-suited for logistics-intensive operations.

Core Capabilities Include:

• Picking and sorting packages
• Transporting materials
• Assembly line assistance
• Warehouse logistics operations

The robot can function autonomously or alongside human workers, improving productivity while reducing physical strain in repetitive or hazardous tasks.

Advanced AI, Sensors, and Safety Systems

ELIXIS-W is equipped with stereo depth cameras and 3D LiDAR sensors that enable precise visual SLAM-based navigation. This allows the robot to map and maneuver within complex warehouse layouts with high accuracy.

Powered by NVIDIA Jetson computing systems, the robot integrates AI-driven perception, reinforcement learning controllers, and multimodal sensor fusion for intelligent decision-making and adaptive behavior.

Its dual-arm configuration enables human-like manipulation capabilities, allowing it to handle tools and materials effectively in industrial environments.

For safety, ELIXIS-W incorporates a two-layer safety system designed for secure proximity operations. A curved face display and intuitive Human-Machine Interface (HMI) enhance interaction and communication with on-floor workers.

Reliance-Backed Growth and Expansion

Addverb Technologies is backed by Reliance Jio, which reportedly holds a significant stake in the company. This investment strengthens Addverb’s financial and technological foundation, accelerating innovation in AI-driven robotics manufacturing within India.

With ambitions to scale production and deployment, Addverb aims to reduce dangerous and repetitive tasks across warehouses, manufacturing units, and potentially even defense-sector applications.

Boost to India’s Robotics Ecosystem

The unveiling of ELIXIS-W at the AI Impact Summit 2026 signals India’s rising position in advanced robotics innovation. Built domestically and supported by Indian industry, the robot represents a transition from conceptual AI research to scalable industrial automation solutions.

As India strengthens its robotics ecosystem, initiatives like ELIXIS-W demonstrate that the country is not only participating in global AI advancements but actively contributing to next-generation industrial automation technologies.
