Rasbot Launches in Ireland: Bringing Humanoid Robotics from Science Fiction to Everyday Business

By Shubhi Mishra

For many people, humanoid robots still feel like something from a film. They are the kind of technology we imagine seeing at a major international exhibition, in a research lab, or in a futuristic video online. They feel excited, but also slightly out of reach.

That is exactly what Rasbot wants to change.

This month, we are proud to launch Rasbot in Ireland, a new robotics brand focused on making humanoid robots available to businesses, schools, universities, exhibitions and events in a simple, practical and accessible way.

Through Robotics as a Service model, Rasbot gives organisations the opportunity to experience advanced robotics without needing to buy, manage or maintain the technology themselves.

The idea behind Rasbot is straightforward. Robotics should not be reserved only for large technology companies or specialist research teams.

It should be something organisations can use to engage people, inspire curiosity, and create memorable experiences in everyday business and learning environments.

At the centre of Rasbot’s launch is Adam, the first humanoid robot to join the Rasbot family.

Adam is powered by the AGIBOT X2 Ultra platform, an advanced humanoid robot designed for natural interaction, movement, navigation, and real-world engagement.

While the technology behind it is highly sophisticated, the experience of meeting it is surprisingly simple: people stop, smile, ask questions and immediately want to know more.

That reaction is one of the reasons we believe humanoid robotics has such strong potential in Ireland. When people meet Adam, they are not just looking at a machine.

They are experiencing a new way of interacting with technology. It can talk, walk, respond to questions, recognise its surroundings, and engage with people in a way that feels approachable rather than intimidating.

For businesses, this opens a completely new way to create attention and engagement.

Imagine arriving at a conference where a humanoid robot welcomes guests, answers basic questions, and helps create a memorable first impression.

Imagine an exhibition stand where visitors are naturally drawn in because they have the chance to interact with a robot.

Imagine a product launch, corporate event or open day where technology becomes part of the experience, not just something being spoken about from a screen.

In a world where organisations are constantly competing for attention, a humanoid robot gives people something to remember.

It starts with conversations. It encourages photos and videos. It helps brands stand out in a way that feels modern, exciting, and different.

Education is another area where Rasbot sees huge opportunities.

Today’s students are growing up in a world shaped by artificial intelligence, automation and robotics.

Reading about these technologies is useful, but seeing and interacting with a humanoid robot in person can make the subject feel real.

It can spark questions, encourage creativity, and inspire students to think differently about technology, engineering, and the future of work.

Adam can support demonstrations, STEM activities, university showcases and innovation programmes by giving students and educators a hands-on way to explore robotics.

For many young people, meeting a humanoid robot may be the moment that turns curiosity into ambition.

Of course, behind the first impression is a powerful technology platform.

The AGIBOT X2 Ultra is designed with advanced sensing, movement, and interaction capabilities.

It can navigate environments, avoid obstacles, respond to people, and perform coordinated movements and gestures.

These abilities allow it to operate in busy public settings while creating engaging experiences for the people around it.

But Rasbot is not simply about showing people an impressive robot.

It is about helping organisations understand what robotics can do for them in practical terms.

For some, that might mean attracting visitors to an event.

For others, it might mean supporting an education programme, creating unique customer experience, or demonstrating innovation to clients and partners.

As part of the wider EVAD Technology Group, Rasbot brings together robotics, technology and real-world deployment experience.

This gives us a strong foundation to help organisations explore robotics in a way that is practical, supported, and relevant to their goals.

The launch of Rasbot is only the beginning. Adam is the first humanoid robot in the Rasbot portfolio, but it will not be the last.

As robotics continues to develop, we want to help Irish organisations experience these technologies early, understand their possibilities and use them in ways that feel meaningful rather than overwhelming.

The future of robotics is no longer happening somewhere else. It is becoming part of everyday business, education, and customer experience.

With Rasbot, that future has arrived in Ireland.

Rasbot provides Humanoid Robots as a Service for businesses, educational institutions and event organisers across Ireland.

From exhibitions and conferences to STEM programmes and innovation showcases, Rasbot helps organisations experience the future of robotics in a simple, engaging and practical way.
