The CES Innovation Award is a prestigious honor presented by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) to products that demonstrate outstanding technology and innovation. NamuX is the world’s first wellness robot to offer integrated wellness solutions based on human-centered artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Its wellness solutions, powered by advanced AI, include an autonomous and fully voice-controlled air solution, as well as contactless vital sign checks.

NamuX’s core feature is its air solution, which autonomously locates and purifies sources of pollution using self-driving and 100% voice control capabilities. It purifies spaces ten times faster than conventional 66-square-meter fixed air purifiers, and a single wellness robot can manage areas up to 198 square meters, reducing subscription and energy costs while maximizing space efficiency. It removes over 99% of 28 types of pollutants, including ultrafine dust, bacteria, and viruses, and can be used in various environments such as homes, offices, and lobbies.

Utilizing contactless remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) technology, NamuX can measure five key health indicators-body temperature, cardiac activity, pulse, oxygen saturation, and stress index-in under 10 seconds through its "vital sign check" function. It also provides additional "wellness modes" (wake-up, welcome, relax) tailored to different daily scenarios.

In addition, NamuX supports intelligent AI voice conversations, enabling 100% control of all functions using voice commands alone, without the need for device touch or internet connection. Recently, by integrating the Gemini AI model, the performance of AI voice conversations has been further enhanced. Leveraging Google search capabilities, NamuX can now provide real-time answers to the latest issues and information.

Based on its differentiated AI technology, SK Intellix plans to expand NamuX’s services into various areas such as security and personal health care in the future. A NamuX representative stated, “We aim to evolve into an integrated wellness platform that enriches and enhances users’ daily lives through ultra-personalized, data-driven care.”
