Wearable Walking-Assist Robots and ALLEX at CES 2026
WIRobotics, a global robotics company co-led by Co-CEOs Younbaek Lee and Yongjae Kim, is drawing strong attention at CES 2026, the leading exhibition in Las Vegas. The company is showcasing a broad range of robotic technologies, from a wearable walking-assist robot for everyday use to next-generation humanoid robotics.
WIRobotics builds on its CES 2026 Unveiled presentation and continues to engage attendees at the leading exhibition. It introduces wearable walking-assist robots designed for daily life alongside advanced humanoid robot technology. WIRobotics has supplied its wearable robot, WIM, to the public for around three years, and it entered the market earlier than many other wearable robotics brands. This early presence, which predates the broader adoption of walking-assist technology, is attracting strong interest from industry professionals at the show.
At CES 2026, WIRobotics is running hands-on demonstrations focused on WIM S, an upgraded version of WIM. Since 2025, WIRobotics has expanded WIM S beyond Korea into global markets, including Europe, China, and Japan. Attendees have responded positively to its real-world usability and user-centred design.
CES 2026 has also brought existing WIM users to the WIRobotics stand. Many of them bought the product in 2024 and returned to experience the upgraded features of WIM S. They also shared how WIM has improved their daily lives since they adopted it. This engagement reinforces WIM’s role as a wearable walking-assist robot built for long-term, real-world use rather than short-term demonstrations.
WIRobotics also differentiates its wearable robots through a design philosophy that prioritises natural body fit and delivers only the assistance users need. Visitors highlighted the comfortable fit, balanced support, and suitability for extended daily wear. They also noted that these strengths encourage consistent, everyday adoption.
WIRobotics is also drawing meaningful attention for its humanoid robot, ALLEX, at the leading exhibition. After live demonstrations, representatives from global AI and technology companies expressed interest in purchasing. WIRobotics is also discussing potential collaborations with global technology leaders, including NVIDIA, Meta, and Amazon. With several companies, the discussions have moved into specific technical directions for collaboration and joint technology development, with a focus on expanding applications and scaling humanoid robotics.
WIRobotics is presenting ALLEX through live demonstrations of movement and interaction at CES 2026. These sessions give visitors a firsthand view of the company’s approach to next-generation humanoid robot development and its long-term technology roadmap.
Throughout the exhibition, media outlets and buyers from North America, the Middle East, and South America continue to visit the WIRobotics booth. They are holding active discussions about the company’s robotics portfolio and its plans for global business expansion.
Younbaek Lee, Co-CEO of WIRobotics, stated, "CES 2026 is an important opportunity for WIRobotics to present both robotics technologies designed for everyday life and advanced robotic technologies for the future," adding, "Building on the real-world experience we have accumulated through wearable robots and the growing interest in our humanoid robotics, we aim to create new possibilities for robotics through collaboration with global technology companies."
WIRobotics is exhibiting throughout CES 2026, the leading exhibition at the Venetian Expo, in Halls A-D, Booth 54635. The company continues to engage global audiences through hands-on demonstrations of WIM S and live demonstrations of its humanoid robot ALLEX.
