A full presentation will take place on January 6 at CES 2026.
The device is designed to handle household chores, manage appliances, and interact naturally with residents, understanding their daily routines and environment.
The debut of LG CLOiD aligns with the company's long-term vision of creating a "home without routine tasks, where people can spend time together."
In one demonstration, the robot prepares breakfast for a resident in a hurry to get to work. Following a pre-set algorithm, the bot retrieves milk from the fridge, places croissants in the oven, and gathers essential items like apartment keys. After the person leaves, LG CLOiD continues with household tasks.
The robot features a humanoid design to optimize its functions. Its body consists of a head and two arms, and it moves on wheels. LG CLOiD can adjust its height from 105 cm to 143 cm, while its arms, approximately 87 cm long, allow it to reach various objects.

The robot's head serves as the control center for the "smart home," powered by AI on the LG Q9 platform. It houses a chipset, display, speakers, cameras, sensors, and a voice-generative AI.
"Our goal is to create a home where robots and AI-powered appliances take over household duties, allowing people to relax, enjoy life, and focus on what truly matters," said LG representatives.
As a reminder, in December 2025, six humanoid robots G1 from Unitree Robotics performed at a concert as backup dancers, executing synchronized forward flips.
