LG to Unveil Household Robot CLOiD at CES 2026

The Humanoid Robot Designed for Home Assistance

LG Electronics is set to introduce its latest innovation, a humanoid robot named CLOiD, at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. Known for heavily showcasing robotic technology, this year's tech expo will serve as a platform for LG to reveal its home assistant, scheduled for a comprehensive presentation in January.

CLOiD features two advanced arms, each equipped with five independently operating fingers, engineered to assist with a spectrum of domestic chores. However, LG has not specified exact tasks that CLOiD can perform. Details on its appearance remain scarce, with only a few close-up shots of its hands released; the full design will remain a secret until the event.

Vision for a 'Zero Labor Home'

Positioned as part of LG's ambition to create a 'Zero Labor Home' that enhances personal quality time, CLOiD is a leap toward relieving users from household responsibilities. This reflects LG's broader objective to diminish the time burden of everyday tasks.

Technological Features and Interactive Capabilities

Packed within CLOiD's head is its computing unit, which also incorporates a screen, audio speaker, camera, and an array of sensors, all purposed to facilitate expressive and intuitive interaction. LG emphasizes that its new creation leverages 'Affectionate Intelligence' technology, promoting a user-friendly interface and evolving its responses through continuous engagement with users.

CES: A Glimpse into Possible Futures

CES often functions as a stage for showcasing visionary concepts, providing glimpses into technological possibilities that might not always materialize commercially. Whether CLOiD is merely a standout demonstration piece or harbors true market potential remains uncertain. Visitors at the expo will have the opportunity to witness CLOiD managing various real-world scenarios at LG's display in the Las Vegas Convention Center.
