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 humanoid robot named ‘ELIXIS W’ at the AI Impact Summit 2026. Built by Indian engineers, the wheeled humanoid robot has been designed for warehouse and intralogistics operations.
Made-in-India humanoid robot from Addverb steals the spotlight
The company highlighted that ELIXIS W is specifically engineered for intralogistics and warehouse operations. It is focusing on human-robot collaboration rather than traditional bipedal humanoid designs.
Designed for warehouses and industrial use
Unlike conventional walking humanoids, the Addverb’s ELIXIS-W is a wheeled-base humanoid robot that enables faster and more efficient long-distance movement. The company claims that the robot is capable of travelling at speeds of up to 1.5 metres per second and could handle payloads of up to 10 kilograms – perfect for working in the warehouses across various sectors.
The ELIXIS-W robot is capable of performing the following tasks:
- Picking and sorting packages
- Transporting materials
- Assembly assistance
- Warehouse logistics operations
It is said to be designed to work autonomously or along with human workers, which is said to be a dynamic industrial environment.
About ELIXIS-W: Advanced AI, sensors and safety features
- ELIXIS-W robot is reportedly equipped with stereo depth cameras and 3D LiDAR sensors, which help to achieve accurate visual SLAM-based navigation.
- This enables the precise movement of the humanoid robot and enables it to map inside complex warehouse layouts easily.
- The robot is powered by NVIDIA Jetson computing systems and supports AI-driven perception, reinforcement learning controllers and multimodal sensor fusion.
- The robot comes with dual arm support that offers human-like movements. This makes the robot suitable for handling tools and materials in the warehouses and manufacturing units.
- To ensure safe operations, the robot features a two-layer safety system for secure proximity work. Its curved face display and intuitive human-machine interface (HMI) improve interaction with workers on the floor.
Reliance-backed Addverb: Indian robotics push
As per the sources, Reliance Jio has invested around 50 per cent in Addverb Technologies, aiming at strengthening its financial and technological capabilities. The investment highlights the growth of the private sector and its interest in advanced robotics and AI manufacturing, which is completely made in India.
With ambitions to scale production, Addverb is working further and aims to play a major role in reducing the dangerous tasks which are being carried out in the warehouses, manufacturing units, and even in the defence sector.
Boost to India’s AI and Robotics Ecosystem
The showcasing of ELIXIS W at the AI Impact Summit signals India’s rising position in advanced robotics innovation. The robot, which was built by Indian engineers and supported by a domestic conglomerate, demonstrates how automation is moving from concept to reality in India.
