Robots in the Home of the Future: MYBOTSHOP at Galileo’s “House of the Future”
How will we live in the year 2050?
This question was at the center of an exciting TV project by the Galileo editorial team. As part of the experiment “House of the Future”, an ordinary house in Germany was transformed into a highly advanced smart home environment.
At the beginning of 2026, MYBOTSHOP had the opportunity to be part of this unique project. For the experiment, we provided two advanced robotic systems that demonstrate how robotics could become part of our everyday lives in the future.
Turning a Normal Home into the “House of the Future”
For the experiment, a typical residential house was equipped with innovative technologies designed to simulate how people might live in the year 2050.
A family and a couple spent 24 hours inside this futuristic home, experiencing firsthand how modern technologies could integrate into daily life.
The technologies used in the experiment included:
- AI systems capable of recognizing emotions
- advanced smart home technology
- automated solutions for everyday tasks
- robots supporting daily routines
The goal of the experiment was to explore how humans and intelligent machines might coexist in everyday living environments in the future.
Robotics in Everyday Life
Robotics is developing rapidly. While robots were traditionally used mainly in industrial and research environments, they are increasingly finding their way into everyday applications — including homes, healthcare, logistics, and service industries.
For the “House of the Future” experiment, MYBOTSHOP provided two robotic systems that demonstrated how robots could support people in their daily lives.
The Humanoid Robot: Unitree H1
The Unitree H1 is a full-size humanoid robot designed to operate in environments built for humans.
Thanks to its humanoid structure, the robot can interact with objects and spaces in ways that make it especially relevant for future household and service applications.
In the “House of the Future”, the H1 demonstrated how humanoid robots could assist with everyday tasks and interact with people within a home environment.
Humanoid robots such as the H1 illustrate how robotics could eventually become helpful assistants in daily life.
The Quadruped Robot: Unitree Go2
Alongside the humanoid robot, the Unitree Go2 quadruped robot was also part of the experiment.
Quadruped robots are known for their stability, agility, and adaptability. With advanced navigation systems, they can move autonomously through complex environments.
In the “House of the Future”, the Go2 demonstrated how such robots could support smart living environments — for example by navigating through homes or assisting with monitoring and everyday tasks.
A Glimpse into the Future of Living
The “House of the Future” experiment provides an exciting glimpse into a potential future in which robotics, artificial intelligence, and smart home technologies play an increasingly important role in everyday life.
While some of these applications may still seem futuristic today, many of the underlying technologies already exist and are evolving rapidly.
At MYBOTSHOP, we are proud to contribute to this technological development and help make robotics accessible for research, development, and real-world applications.

Shaping the Future Together
Projects like “House of the Future” highlight how robotics and artificial intelligence are steadily becoming part of everyday life. As these technologies continue to evolve, collaboration between humans and intelligent machines will play an increasingly important role in shaping the environments we live in.
MYBOTSHOP is proud to contribute to this development and support technologies that will help define the homes of tomorrow.
