Developed by Vandri Robotics, the machine moved among shopfronts and market stalls, drawing curious residents. The event aimed to show how robots could operate in public and commercial spaces while respecting the city's historic setting.

Vandri Robotics says Roby is built for tourism, education and public services. The focus, developers said, is on natural communication and cooperation with people, not replacement.

The Sarajevo launch begins a national tour that will see Roby next head to Banja Luka, as Bosnia explores the role of humanoid robots in everyday life.
