NAO6
The sixth generation of the iconic NAO humanoid robot, originally developed by Aldebaran Robotics (France) and now manufactured by Maxtronics after Maxvision Technologies acquired Aldebaran's assets in 2025. Standing 58cm tall with 25 degrees of freedom, NAO is one of the most widely deployed humanoid robots in history — over 13,000 units in use across 70+ countries. NAO replaced Sony's AIBO as the RoboCup Standard Platform League robot in 2007 and has been used in education, research, healthcare, and autism therapy. Features multilingual speech, facial recognition, and the Choregraphe graphical programming tool. Development began as 'Project Nao' in 2004.
