Manuel Catalano, Principal Researcher and Head of the NuBots Unit at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT), poses next humanoid robot Alter-Ego at the IRCSS Maugeri hospital in Milan on June 12, 2026. A hospital in Milan is trialling a small robot designed to greet and interact with patients, thereby relieving staff of the most repetitive tasks. Ego, standing 1.20 metres tall and equipped with finely articulated arms and hands, as well as expressive eyebrows, can act as a stand-in for a doctor who is not physically present, bring water to a patient or guide them through the corridors for treatment.
