Eno
Eno is Genesis AI's first general-purpose robot, unveiled on 16 June 2026, and it is built on a deliberate refusal to look like a person. It has no head and no legs: a wheeled base carries a set of articulated panels that adjust height and reach in real time and fold down for storage, and on top sit human-scale dexterous hands with ten fingers shaped and driven to match a human hand. That choice is the whole argument, because hands that match ours can use the tools, fixtures, benches and shelves that already exist instead of requiring workplaces to be rebuilt around the robot. The company's design lead put it simply: start from what the robot has to do, then remove everything that does not serve that. Eno is driven by GENE, Genesis AI's robot-native foundation model, whose GENE-26.5 version the company calls the first robot brain to give human-level manipulation, with millimetre-level precision on long multi-step tasks. Rather than waiting for isolated commands, it is positioned as a physical agent that takes a high-level goal and manages it end to end, understanding context, holding memory, reasoning when conditions change and reordering its own work; an optional screen version shows its intent, reasoning and status so people nearby can see why it is doing what it is doing. Published figures put it at 170 cm and 120 kg with a 12 kg payload, up to 8 hours of runtime and a 6 km/h top speed, using electric servo actuators in aluminium, composite and engineering-plastic construction. At launch it played the piano and was shown carrying boxes in a warehouse, tidying a house and working in a laboratory. Genesis AI targets manufacturing, logistics, laboratories, and later hotels, hospitals and homes, and has a long-term partnership with LG CNS to evaluate and deploy it in LG's US factories and among LG CNS industrial customers, with mass production and initial customer delivery planned before the end of 2026.
Manufacturing, logistics and laboratory customers first, followed by hotels and hospitals on the service side, with consumer home and outdoor settings as the later horizon; within those settings, practical work such as sorting goods, carrying boxes, laboratory tasks including pipetting, and domestic routines such as loading and emptying a dishwasher and folding clothes.
