The Realbotix robot will engage visitors and assist with workforce training
Plano is once again putting itself on the map as a center for cutting-edge technology. This week, Realbotix, a leader in AI-powered humanoid robotics, announced that Ericsson will deploy an advanced humanoid robot at its Imagine Studio experience center in Plano.
The robot, equipped with Realbotix’s proprietary vision technology, is designed to engage with visitors, support workforce training and inspire future technologists.
A Robot That Sees And Interacts
Realbotix’s technology allows its humanoid robots to detect movement and emotions, recognize faces, identify colors, and even read. These capabilities enable the robot to respond intelligently in real time during human interactions, making it more than a novelty — it’s a dynamic tool for education and engagement.

“Ericsson’s adoption of Realbotix robots underscores the growing confidence in AI-powered humanoid robotics, bridging technology with real-world applications,” said Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Realbotix.
Shaping The Future
Realbotix’s modular hardware and AI-agnostic architecture allow the robots to adapt to a wide variety of professional and educational uses. From human resources guidance and workforce development to campus outreach, the robots are poised to transform how organizations engage with employees and the public alike.
For Plano, the partnership highlights the city’s role as a hub for innovation, combining corporate leadership with emerging technology to provide residents and visitors a glimpse into the future of work. Realbotix’s deployment at Ericsson’s Imagine Studio demonstrates how humanoid robotics can enhance training, inspire students and elevate interactive experiences in real-world settings.
As Realbotix continues to expand its reach, the collaboration with Ericsson positions the city at the forefront of AI and robotics innovation in North Texas.
