"OLLOBOT introduces OlloNi, a cyber pet robot for homes that displays playful emotions using an interactive screen between its two eyes. Designed to be a companion, the device is meant to live in a home the way a pet does: nearby, responsive, and emotionally present, without being demanding or overwhelming. Instead of copying the shape of a dog, a cat, or a person, OlloNi has a soft, rounded body that feels friendly rather than mechanical."
"Instead of hiding these features inside the body, the designers made them visible so people can understand what OlloNi is doing at a glance. OlloNi's eyes are screens rather than glass lenses, and these digital eyes can change shape, brightness, and movement, allowing the cyber pet for home to show feelings using pixels instead of facial muscles. When it is curious, excited, confused, or calm, its eyes shift to match its mood."
OlloNi is a soft-bodied home cyber pet designed to be nearby, responsive, and emotionally present without demanding attention. Two horn-like touch sensors on its head provide emergency stop and mute functions while housing cameras and facial recognition to notice faces and emotional cues. The robot's eyes are digital screens that change shape, brightness, and movement to display emotions clearly, aiding intuitive communication for all ages. A glowing, heart-shaped core stores memories captured by the cameras, making remembering part of the device's companion behavior. The device appears at CES 2026 in Las Vegas.
