Positioning

Hexagon AB (Nasdaq Stockholm: HEXA B; Stockholm HQ, Robotics division Zurich-based) is a precision-measurement and sensor group that formed a dedicated Robotics division on Mar-31-25 and launched its first humanoid, AEON, on Jun-17-25 at Hexagon LIVE. AEON is an industrial humanoid combining Hexagon's sensor suite with NVIDIA compute (Jetson/Omniverse), Microsoft Azure and maxon actuators, with Schaeffler and Pilatus signed as pilot customers; broader unit release is targeted early 2026. Open question: the Robotics division is explicitly in an investment phase with no disclosed robotics revenue, and pilots—not fleet deployments—are the current state.
