As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embodied in physical systems, the frontier of robotics is shifting towards interaction, between robots, with their environments, and above all, with humans.
At the IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2025), PAL Robotics will join the global discussion on embodied AI and human-robot interaction, exploring how social robots are redefining the future. Attendees will discover how PAL Robotics’ platforms, and their potential for research and development, advance collaboration, perception, and adaptability in real-world environments.
Where intelligence meets collaboration
Human-robot interaction is redefining how we live and work with intelligent systems. It’s not only about robots performing tasks, but about creating a common language between humans and machines. PAL Robotics’ research in this field focuses on developing robots that perceive, interpret, and react to human behavior in shared spaces, from gestures and movements to speech and intent.
Through continuous learning and real-time adaptation, the company’s robots are designed to collaborate intuitively, becoming solutions for support across healthcare, research, and industry. These advances demonstrate how smart systems embody artificial intelligence to move beyond automation to genuine cooperation.
Intelligence that learns by doing
For robots to interact meaningfully with people, intelligence must exist within the physical world. This is the foundation of embodied AI, where perception, cognition, and action are linked through experience. PAL Robotics’ platforms learn by doing, applying this concept to refine their understanding of spaces, objects, and humans.
By combining machine learning with advanced control and perception software, the company develops robots that not only execute tasks but also capture data in real-time to hone their capabilities. This approach bridges laboratory research and real-world application, making PAL Robotics a trusted partner for both research teams and companies that are working to create a future where humans and robots collaborate to improve people’s quality of life.
Shaping the next generation of intelligent systems
PAL Robotics’ participation at IROS 2025 reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to develop solutions in which AI is used as a tool to get closer to people. As embodied intelligence evolves, the boundaries between digital and physical collaboration continue to blur, opening new opportunities for assistance, education, and innovation.

About PAL Robotics
PAL Robotics started in 2004, when a small group of engineers built the first fully autonomous humanoid biped robot in Europe which also happened to play chess. Today the company is still well known for humanoid robots, as well as retail and manufacturing solutions, and develops state-of-the-art robots for companies and research institutions worldwide. PAL Robotics’ mission is to enhance people’s quality of life through service robotics and automation, and the company has also partnered in over 60 collaborative research projects to further the development of robotics.
