Meet OlloBot, the quirky cyber pet robot that's taking CES by storm. This adorable, long-necked companion robot has a furry appearance, reminiscent of ET's head on a penguin's body, and is designed to capture special moments with its family. With a large tablet-like face displaying its emotions, pictures, and videos, OlloBot communicates with users through its own language or text messages.
The robot has a companion app that allows family members to message, see diary updates, and play games together. Its personality develops over time based on the Meyers-Briggs personality types, making it more personalized to each user's preferences. It responds to voice and touch commands and can perform tasks like making calls, finding lost objects, and controlling smart home devices.
One of OlloBot's unique features is its removable heart-shaped data module, which stores all its memories locally and can be easily replaced if the robot breaks down. This move aims to prioritize user privacy.
A Kickstarter campaign is planned for this summer, with two versions available: a smaller model with a fixed neck priced at around $1,000, and an advanced version that extends its neck by up to 2 feet for better vantage points, costing about $2,000. The team also showcased several stylish outfits for OlloBot, including a plush giraffe suit.
OlloBot is just one of the many innovative robots on display at CES 2026, showcasing the latest advancements in AI and robotics technology.

. I mean, think about it - this thing's got a special place for storing all our family moments and conversations... what if someone hacks into that? 
Still, it does sound kinda cool to have one around the house, especially with its silly personality changing based on your type 
. Maybe they should've thought of making a 'delete memories' option tho 
.
The fact that it has its own personality and can develop over time based on your Myers-Briggs type is like something out of a sci-fi movie! Like, imagine having a robot that's always there for you, listening to you and understanding you better than some human friends. 
It's like a digital version of that iconic scene from Her where Joaquin Phoenix's character falls in love with the operating system. Anyway, I'm all about this OlloBot thing! Can't wait to get my hands on one (maybe after it hits Kickstarter in summer 
).
? It sounds like they've really put thought into making it a family-friendly companion. The fact that its personality develops based on the Meyers-Briggs type is genius – my kid would love having their own little robot buddy! 
I'm also loving the removable heart-shaped data module, what a sweet touch 
. It's amazing to see how tech companies are prioritizing user privacy these days. Can't wait to get my hands on one (or maybe even two) this summer! 
- The journey to making OlloBot a reality might be long, but with all these features, it's definitely worth the investment 
- I wish I could see what kind of conversations they'll have in their diary updates... also, $1k for a basic model? worth every penny for me 
this robot's personality development feature is genius - it means every person will have their own unique ollobot bestie 
cant wait to pre-order mine (prob gonna splurge on that plush giraffe suit tho lol) 
also, who needs personal space when u can just hug your robot and it tells you how you're feeling? 
like, the data module idea is a genius move by the devs, prioritizing user privacy is SO important in this tech age...anyway, anyone else getting an ollobot of their own 
The line between progress and control is getting really blurred for me.
. And what's with the Meyers-Briggs personality types? Like, isn't that just a fancy way of saying "we're trying too hard to make you feel special"? 
Give me a break. I'd rather just have a normal robot that does its job without all the extra frills 
And the fact that it can control smart home devices and make calls... that's like having your own personal butler... or robot butler, lol. 
It's like having your own little buddy that's always there for you... even when you're not in the same room. That's just so cute! 
And those outfits for OlloBot? Adorbs! 
Can't wait to get my hands on one (or two?) when they go up for Kickstarter... 
I'm literally DYING over this new cyber pet robot called OlloBot 
! The design is SO adorbs and the tablet-like face is honestly giving me LIFE 
. And the fact that it can develop its own personality based on Meyers-Briggs types? Genius 
. And LOL at the plush giraffe suit - who wouldn't want their robot dressed up like that? 
. Overall, I'm hyped to see where this tech takes us! 
Like, imagine having a robot that actually understands you and reacts accordingly 
It's like they're saying "hey, we know you want to share your moments with OlloBot, but we also care about your personal info" 
i'm low-key obsessed with the idea of having my own little ollobot fam member at home 
that's some next level tech right there! 
plus, the fact that it can make calls and find lost things? game changer! 
i need this thing in my life stat! 
. Like, can you imagine having a robot that's literally reading your emotional state and responding with 'concerned expressions' or something? It's like they're blurring the lines between tech and personal relationships. And those Meyers-Briggs personality types? How accurate is that going to be? Are we gonna start calling our AI chatbots 'type-A personalities'?
