At CES 2026 in Las Vegas, LG Electronics steps into bold territory with CLOiD, an AI-powered home robot that’s designed to live with you, learn from you, and quietly take chores off your plate. Think less sci-fi showpiece, more practical helper that actually fits into daily life. LG positions CLOiD as part of its long-term idea of a ‘Zero Labour Home,’ a future where routine household work shifts from humans to AI, freeing up time for things that matter more. What CLOiD actually does at home CLOiD isn’t built for one flashy trick. LG says the robot adapts to your routine and handles multiple everyday tasks. It can: At CES, LG shows live demos of the robot preparing residents for their day, changing actions in real time if plans shift.

A robot that learns how you live CLOiD listens, watches, and learns. It responds to voice commands, helps with activities like home workouts, and slowly adapts to household habits. LG claims the robot can understand complex situations and respond in a way that feels natural, not scripted. Instead of fixed commands, CLOiD adjusts its behaviour as it gets familiar with how people move through their day. Why CLOiD has wheels, not legs Unlike humanoid robots that walk, CLOiD moves on a wheeled base. LG chooses stability over spectacle here. Wheels make the robot safer around children and pets, easier to control indoors, and mechanically simpler. The robot has: LG builds on its experience from robot vacuums and service robots to keep things practical.

A moving smart-home hub CLOiD also works as a portable smart-home controller. Powered by LG’s Q9 AI platform, it connects cameras, sensors, speakers, and a display to manage smart devices around the house. LG uses its own vision and language AI systems, allowing the robot to see, understand, and communicate without relying entirely on third-party software. Bigger plans beyond one robot Alongside CLOiD, LG plans to introduce a new robotics component brand at CES 2026. Executives describe CLOiD not just as a product launch, but as a clear message: LG wants AI and robotics to quietly blend into everyday living, reducing household work without turning homes into tech showrooms. For now, CLOiD looks less like a novelty robot and more like LG testing how far people are ready to let AI step into their homes.
