From August 29 to September 2, the International Olympic Academy will host the First International Humanoid Olympiad, combining artificial intelligence and robotics.

Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games, will be the setting for a unique event where humanoid robots will demonstrate their skills, agility and speed in competitions inspired by Olympic disciplines, including sprinting, jumping and javelin throwing. 

Entertainment and technology of the Olympics promises spectacular competitions and a deep dive into the world of innovation. Guests can watch robots demonstrate their agility, flexibility, and intelligence while performing tasks that require precise sensorimotor control.

At the same time, the world's leading experts in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence will hold lectures and workshops covering the future of physical intelligence, human-machine interaction, as well as the ethical aspects of new technologies.

Global event in the world of robotics The International Humanoid Olympiad will bring together the most advanced humanoid robots from all over the world, demonstrating their functionality and the latest developments. Behind each of these robots are researchers, engineers, students, and innovators working to push the boundaries of what is possible for intelligent machines.

The Olympiad was initiated by Acumino, a leading company in the field of robotic intelligence, known for its breakthrough technologies. The Olympiad is organized jointly with Endeavor Greece, which supports entrepreneurs who create meaningful innovations.

Interactive experience A variety of interactive activities await all visitors. They will be able to see the latest models of humanoid robots, watch live demonstrations, and even interact with the machines. The artificial intelligence that drives these robots allows them to move, adapt, and solve real-world problems, creating value not only for technology, but also for society and the economy.
