Oversonic Robotics, an Italian company specializing in the design and manufacturing of cognitive and collaborative humanoid robots, is accelerating its international expansion, building on the experience gained with industrial customers across Europe.
The company is present with its industrial model RoBee R20 at two major European technology events: electronica in Munich and Web Summit in Lisbon.
The two events mark an acceleration in Oversonic’s strategy to expand its presence and positioning in international markets.
Founded in 2020, the technology company has developed a proprietary humanoid robotics platform entirely designed and manufactured in Italy, already deployed in real industrial environments across Europe and involved in clinical trials in hospital settings.
At electronica 2026 in Munich, RoBee R20 will be showcased at the STMicroelectronics booth (Hall C3, Stand 101), operating continuously throughout the exhibition day, replicating activities and working practices typical of a factory and demonstrating the capabilities of cognitive humanoid robotics in manufacturing environments.
Participation in these two international events further strengthens Oversonic’s global visibility, building on its presence at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, where the company showcased its industrial and medical humanoid robots.
The two European events will precede Oversonic’s second appearance at CES, reflecting the company’s commitment to strengthening relationships with leading international technology and industrial players and highlighting Italian expertise in a rapidly evolving market.
RoBee R20 represents a further evolution of the technology developed by Oversonic, the first European company to introduce cognitive humanoid robots into industrial production processes as early as 2023.
Designed to assist workers with repetitive, physically demanding or potentially hazardous tasks, RoBee can interact with people, machinery and production environments, supporting the automation of activities such as picking, object handling, machine tending and quality control.
Oversonic’s technology is built on an approach to robotics that combines artificial intelligence, cognitive capabilities and human-robot collaboration.
Through vision systems, sensors and advanced algorithms integrated into its proprietary cognitive platform BeeOS, RoBee can recognize people and objects, navigate autonomously and adapt its behavior to operating conditions while working in environments shared with human personnel.
Safety, reliability and robustness are the three fundamental requirements guiding the design of R20, developed to support workers and contribute to the evolution of manufacturing processes.
Among the distinctive features of RoBee R20 is its ability to operate in ISO Class 6 controlled environments, as defined by ISO 14644-1.
This extends its potential applications to manufacturing environments with particularly stringent contamination-control requirements.
The capability is especially relevant to advanced technology sectors such as semiconductor manufacturing, where precision, reliability and particle control are essential to industrial operations.
Paolo Denti, CEO, and Fabio Puglia, chairman of Oversonic, says: “The humanoid robotics industry is entering a decisive phase, in which the value of technology is increasingly measured by its ability to address real industrial needs.
“This is the vision on which we built Oversonic, bringing our robots into manufacturing processes as early as 2023 and designing and manufacturing solutions in Italy that were conceived from the outset for deployment in real-world working environments.
“Today, we aim to take the industrial experience gained with our European customers to a global scale. Munich and Lisbon represent two important milestones in this journey, which will continue with our return to CES in Las Vegas.
“We want to demonstrate that the humanoid robotics solutions the industry needs can be designed and built in Italy, and that we can compete from here with the world’s leading international players.”
