The Chinese startup AnyWit Robotics has developed a hyper-realistic replica of Ela Bosak, the fan favorite from Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege.
The AI-powered humanoid robot closely matches the aesthetics and mannerisms of the Polish operator from the Ubisoft video game. It features exceptionally lifelike silicone skin with freckles, expressive blue eyes, and the character’s signature teal and green bob haircut with bangs. Micro motors power a reported 34 degrees of freedom (DoF) in its face for eerily lifelike
Ela, whose real name is Elżbieta Bosak, is known for using special concussion mines that flash and stun attackers, disorienting them for easy takedowns in the team-based tactical first-person shooter game. The character has a rebellious punk-rock attitude shaped by her complicated upbringing in a strict military family. She was added to the game in late 2016 and remains popular to this day.
AnyWit Robotics shared footage of the humanlike robot to promote an in-person display at the official Rainbow Six Siege booth during BiliBili World 2026 from July 10-12 at Shanghai’s National Exhibition and Convention Center.
The startup, launched in 2023 by recent graduates from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), is known for its Ameca-like android busts and its robotic pink-haired pop singer Annie. The singing robot is built off of Unitree’s compact G1 humanoid. The group began research and development into emotionally interactive humanoid robots as early as 2021, when they built a bionic robotic panda named Xiao Chuan as a special project for the Chengdu Giant Panda Museum.
The startup’s core founders, Cao Rongyun and Lian Cong, are both alumni of an elite honors program at USTC, which is also where researchers developed one of China’s first viral lifelike robots, Jia Jia (Robot Goddess), in the 2010s.
