Exhibition
Demo: Force sensitive manipulators, micropolishing, Haptic teleoperation
Robots have traditionally excelled in industrial settings with precise, repetitive tasks, but their adaptability in dynamic, unstructured environments has been limited due to complex programming requirements. AI and Machine Learning (ML) promise to make robots more adaptable and easier to program, yet challenges remain, particularly in data acquisition. While current robotic sensors capture motion data like joint positions and visuals, they often lack force measurements crucial for predicting actions and handling deformable or movable objects. Force and torque sensing play a vital role in improving robot control and enabling “physical intelligence” through AI-driven learning, allowing robots to perform tasks like preventing slippage, grasping delicate objects, and operating in dynamic environments. These advancements pave the way for applications in warehouse automation, healthcare, and underwater robotics. This session will explore effective methods for equipping robots with force sensing and capturing high-quality data to advance robotic learning and adaptability.
Bota Systems will demonstrate the following demos:Â
Demo 1: AI policy training through Kinesthetic Teaching.Â
The most prominent data gathering data collection method for outstanding performance on Manipulation with Robotic AI. More to be shown live.
Demo 2: Industrial polishing for watchmakers.
The watchmaking industry requires fine manual skills that are rare to find and difficult to train. Bota Systems polishing system makes polishing of small objects easier and more reliable than ever. A promising technology that will become a powerful tool at the hands of a master in the skill of polishing.
Demo 3: Haptic teleoperation for AI policy training.Â
Embodied, Physical or Robotics AI? You name it; and we give you the tools!
The visitors can close their eyes and will be able to teleoperate a stiff robot via its haptic feedback with precision, safety and agility. It will be the first time trying this setup! Without haptic feedback robots can brake the parts.
This movement can be recorded and replayed with just a button or two. No coding involved!Â
- One can label the episode and gather data to build the AI model to control autonomously the robot.
- One can teleoperate manually hazardous materials like those in nuclear decommissioning.
Demo 4: Tactile sensing for detecting slippage and contact.
More will be demonstrated live.

CynLr
About
CynLr is a foundational technology company in robotics and AI that builds Object Intelligence, a technology stack that enables robots to intuitively learn to pick and handle even unknown objects without requiring any prior training. This capability allows robots to operate in unstructured and unpredictable environments, performing tasks that traditional systems cannot automate. In manufacturing, tasks like fitting screws, removing packaging, or assembling parts have resisted automation because they require machines to adapt on the fly. CynLr’s goal is to replace rigid, product-specific lines with Universal Factories, where micro factories can switch between products without needing custom-built machines.
Founded in 2019 and based in Bangalore, India, CynLr has raised $15.2 million from investors including Pavestone Capital, Athera Venture Partners, Speciale Invest, and InfoEdge’s Redstart Labs. With its Design center in Switzerland and Development center in Bangalore, the company has recently opened its US center for Business Development. Its flagship system, CyRo, demonstrates how Object Intelligence can simplify manufacturing and reduce the need for dedicated machines built for single tasks. CynLr was named a 2025 Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum.
Exhibition

Rapid Manufacturing AG
About
Rapid Manufacturing AG is a Swiss-based company offering end-to-end manufacturing solutions – from idea to finished product. As a true one-stop shop, we provide the right process for every need, whether it’s prototyping, functional parts, or small-to-medium batch production.
We combine advanced technologies such as SLS, SLM, vacuum casting, injection molding, and CNC machining to deliver precise, robust plastic and metal components – tailored to your specific application.
With deep expertise in aerospace, medical, robotics, and optical systems, we are your agile and reliable partner for even the most demanding manufacturing challenges.
Exhibition
At our booth you will be able to explore a wide range of sample parts that showcase our manufacturing capabilities. The majority of the parts are produced using SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), but we will also present components made with vacuum casting, SLM (Selective Laser Melting), CNC machining and injection molding.
Some of these parts are identical to those we supply directly for integration into final products, including various types of robots, and we will explain their specific applications.
In addition, you can see how we enhance parts through different post-processing techniques. We will display examples that demonstrate what is possible in terms of surface finishing, colouring, sealing and other treatments, giving you a clear idea of how we can tailor parts to meet functional and aesthetic requirements.
Our promise: fast lead times, smart engineering, and a solution-oriented approach – all in one place.

RRC power solutions GmbH
About
RRC power solutions – this name stands for the highest reliability and innovative technologies in the field of mobile power supply. Founded in 1989 by students as Ruffing-Ruth-Computer, we have evolved from a computer accessories manufacturer to a supplier of customized power solutions and finally to a leading brand manufacturer of standard energy storage products. From a start-up in the late 1980s, we have since become a multinational company that sets new standards in the market as a leading manufacturer of batteries and battery chargers in sophisticated industries. Our rechargeable standard batteries are available off-the-shelf, without any development costs. This leads to reduced battery development efforts for mobile applications and enables much faster time-to-market.
Naturally, our lithium-ion standard battery packs fulfil all the market-relevant safety standards as well as the worldwide national approvals. These aspects combined with the off-the-shelf availability reduce the overall development costs and allow your new device to reach profitability much earlier.
We utilize lithium-ion cells with the highest energy density, maximized discharge current, and the utmost safety levels in our battery packs.
Exhibition
Ready-to-use battery packs for multiple applications with worldwide approvals. In addition to our batteries, we provide you with suitable chargers and power management modules for one-stop delivery.
