Realbotix has unveiled Echo, a humanoid robot with a lifelike face, facial expressions, and AI-powered conversation. It supports voice interaction and customizable personalities, with an optional vision system adding facial recognition and eye contact. Beyond reception and education, the company sees social companionship, emotional support, elderly care, and rehab as the most interesting use cases — a natural pivot given its sex-doll heritage.
