Realbotix and Hollo.AI fuse conversational AI with humanoid robotics in live demo
Realbotix and Hollo.AI have partnered to demonstrate a humanoid robot that combines physical robotics with conversational AI. The presentation took place at the 37th Annual Roth Capital Partners Conference in Dana Point, California.
Realbotix develops AI-integrated humanoid robots designed for social interaction, while Hollo.AI builds conversational AI and digital twins capable of replicating voice, personality, and behavior. The companies worked together to merge these capabilities, creating a robot that embodied a character-based AI.
The project featured a recreation of Chrissy Snow, a character played by Suzanne Somers in Three’s Company. Hollo.AI developed the AI model in collaboration with Alan Hamel, CEO of SuzanneSomers.com, using its personality engine to replicate the character’s conversational style.
Multi-LLM integration and use case potential
The system used Realbotix’s platform, which supports integration with multiple large language models, enabling robots to adopt different personalities based on the software applied. According to the companies, this marks the first time a conversational AI system from one developer has been embedded in a humanoid robot made by another.
Use cases for this type of integration may include interactive avatars for entertainment, education, and brand engagement.
Rex Wong, CEO of Hollo.AI, said:
“We are excited to merge together Hollo.AI’s ‘Soul’ and Realbotix’s ‘Body’ to usher forward the next-generation in human-like robotics. This collaboration will open up new opportunities and possibilities as science fiction becomes reality.”
Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Realbotix, added:
“From day one, we have believed that our ability to integrate various LLMs into our robots is paramount to creating vast use cases for our technology. This is a significant event in the evolution of AI and robotics, and I look forward to more collaborations with Hollo.AI.”
