His name is TEO, he has a humanoid design and an expressive face that doesn\u2019t go unnoticed. He\u2019s friendly, curious\u2026 and moves on wheels!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TEO is an assistive robot we\u2019re training for a broader project focused on caring and support for people, especially older adults and caregivers. To do this, we\u2019ve chosen to test his abilities in a real-world environment: our own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His presence here is part of an experiment in human\u2013robot interaction. Over the course of a year, TEO will explore, learn, and sharpen his skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, he\u2019s learned to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list wp-block-list\">\n<li>move autonomously (but always gives way to humans),<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>detect and avoid obstacles and people using 360\u00b0 sensors,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>emit soft sounds to make himself noticed while moving,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>guide people along set paths, just like a little robotic tour guide,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>respond to simple questions\u2026 in over 30 languages!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>TEO doesn\u2019t record, photograph, or recognize faces: your privacy is safe, and interacting with him is entirely optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TEO watches, communicates, and adapts. He represents our way of bringing technology closer to people and testing its real potential in everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Come visit us, you might be welcomed by TEO himself\u2026 maybe even dancing to a Dua Lipa track!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TEO is looked after every day by a dedicated team, always ready to support (and recharge) him when needed:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/sergio-micalizzi\/\"> Sergio Micalizzi<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/alessio-buttitta-ab7913121\/\">Alessio Buttitta<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marika-alecci-79839b175\/\">Marika Alecci<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marianna-navarra-490915224\/\">Marianna Navarra<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/salvatore-perri-b07846194\/\">Salvatore Perri<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/gianluca-toscano-7172ba18\/\">Gianluca Toscano<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/veronica-re-08a4b1184\/\">Veronica Re<\/a> e<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marcobazzani\/\"> Marco Bazzani<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-figure center \" style=\"\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.teoresigroup.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/teo-robot-teoresi.jpg\" data-size=\"1245x935\" ><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"b-lazy wp-block-image \" style=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teoresigroup.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/teoresi-favicon2024.png\" itemprop=\"thumbnail\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.teoresigroup.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/teo-robot-teoresi-640x481.jpg|https:\/\/www.teoresigroup.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/teo-robot-teoresi-960x721.jpg|https:\/\/www.teoresigroup.com\/test\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/teo-robot-teoresi.jpg\" alt=\"teo robot teoresi\" width=\"640\" height=\"481\" \/><figcaption class=\"image-caption block\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"excerpt\">For the past few weeks, a rather unusual \u201ccolleague\u201d has been roaming around our offices in Turin.
