Industrial humanoid robot DEX will hand out its precision-carved pendants to attendees at Booth #2088 demonstrating The “DEX” Experience
LAS VEGAS, June 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Richtech Robotics Inc. (Nasdaq: RR) (“Richtech Robotics”), a Nevada-based robotics company developing AI-driven automation solutions for commercial and industrial applications, announces it will be a featured exhibitor in the first-ever Humanoid Pavilion at Automate 2026. Operating as "The Intelligence Showcase" at Booth #2088, Richtech Robotics’ presence at the pavilion will focus on Embodied AI and Human-Robot Collaboration, demonstrating the "brain" behind the machine.
"The DEX Experience is a glimpse into the next generation of human-robot collaboration," said Richtech Robotics’ CEO Wayne Huang. "We believe advanced physical AI can seamlessly understand and execute complex, real-time tasks alongside people, and our technology, which utilizes NVIDIA technology stack, demonstrates this potential."
Attendees visiting the pavilion will be treated to a fully interactive demonstration known as: The "DEX" Experience. During this real-time activation, two DEX humanoid robots will be on display, one demonstrating a laser engraving workflow in collaboration with supporting hardware, and a second DEX providing an interactive presentation explaining its features, capabilities, and benefits to attendees via a guided display system. As the main hook of the demonstration, DEX will manufacture and hand out precision-carved pendants, each featuring a custom QR code that links guests directly to a live stream of Richtech’s robots in action.
In addition, Richtech Robotics will showcase additional robotic solutions at Booth #17060 in the Main Hall where its headline features are powered by NVIDIA. Specifically, it will feature screens showcasing how Richtech Robotics leverages the NVIDIA technology stack, including Sim2Real training in NVIDIA Isaac Sim, to successfully evolve its humanoid industrial robot, DEX, from a simulation to a high-functioning physical AI.
A Titan autonomous mobile robot will also be on display in the Humanoid Pavilion as a static demonstration unit, illustrating how additional system components can be integrated into a broader automation ecosystem for material movement and post-production packaging workflows.
Automate is the largest robotics and automation event in North America and brings together leaders across the industry. For more information, visit the event’s website.
