PrimeBOT Says Its Transformable T1 Robot Won an IFA Innovation Award in Berlin
IFA's published winners list confirms the smaller Q1 as an emerging-technology honoree.

BERLIN: PrimeBOT said the T1, a personal robot it describes as able to switch between two-legged and four-legged modes, won the IFA Content Creation Technology innovation award at IFA 2026.
IFA's published winners list includes the Q1 as an honoree in the IFA Next and emerging technologies category, filed under the exhibitor's name Swancor Advanced Materials. The T1 award rests on the company's own announcement. IFA's three master prizes, Best of IFA, Best of Tech and Best Brand, went to Anker, Insta360 and LG Electronics.
The T1 is designed for movement across indoor and outdoor environments and lists more than 15 camera-movement templates alongside person-following and autonomous filming. While, on the other hand Q1 stands 88 centimeters and has 22 degrees of freedom, PrimeBOT said. Neither robot has been independently tested, and the two announcements carry no data on speed, range, battery life or payload.
PrimeBOT is the consumer robotics brand of Swancor New Materials, a Chinese composites producer listed on Shanghai's STAR Market, according to IFA's exhibitor profile.
The T1 has now appeared at three events this year without a price attached. PrimeBOT introduced it at CES in January, showed it at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference in Shanghai in July and demonstrated it in Berlin.
