What it does
Robot will deal with the customer as a receptionist in every field, right now I am focusing for Hotels & restaurants. Human can't work continuously 24 hours in a day. So human will work in shifts of 8 hours. 24/7 robotic reception can work.
Your inspiration
I went to 4 start hotel in morning, at the reception no one is there, wait for someone to come. After sometime, randomly I found one TV screen is their & there is a system to video call to the reception to discuss about the rooms. After I click video call, receptionist pick the call & told wait I will come. After 5 minutes, receptionist came & then I book the room. After some days, I click the idea that robot is already in restaurant to cook the coffee/food & serve to customer but not listen anywhere that robot will deal with the customer as a receptionist. So I decide to make a conversational robot as receptionist to deal with customers.
How it works
As a robotic engineer, I always have a thinking that one day robot will work along with Human in future. The robot who have to human like appearance & I can control its facial recognition. I have trained the robot to talk human like alexa. Mainly I focused the receptionist for the restaurant. It will tell about the restaurant, menu, discounts, payment. Also It can confirm the order after accepting the order.
Design process
I atteched the short clip video of my demonstration. In this video, robot is dealing with customer to order a coffee design process from concept to present day - trained the robot to talk like a human with emotions.
How it is different
I will tell about the restaurant, menu, discounts, payment. Also It can confirm the order after accepting the order. Earlier robot will work in restaurant to cook the coffee/food & also take to customer point. So my concept is different from other product.
Future plans
I try to create a company & sell this type of receptionist robot in future. Want to work- we have to create the robot to tacle with the critical environment as human can handle - Space Humanoid robot.
Awards
I submit this idea to starbucks company also
