Statistics, according to Ilf and Petrov, knows everything. And if all the statistical data to load into memory robots, then all will know and the robot. Especially when it comes to such a serious institution as a bank. In Madrid the banking center of Santander’s Group City (Spain) robots serve both statisticians and guides.
The fact is that the vast closed area banking center is located only nine major multi-storey buildings, not counting subsidiary buildings. Works in this giant “financial anthill” more than five and a half thousand employees. Naturally, an employee from one agency within the banking center will be bad bearings in the arrangement of space in another. And if someone needs appeared in the center, then get lost among the buildings, halls and offices easier than ever. Without a guide, a guide there is not enough. This means that employees will be distracted by a completely unproductive work.
That is why in Santander’s Group City have brought a group of very nice mobile robots, ready to accompany anyone wishing to any place in the banking center. To choose on the touch screen robot right place, and mechanized guide will lead you along. After the mission, the robot can either return to the starting position, or wait to back a man out of the labyrinth of corridors. In addition, the memory of the robot based on all the basic information of institutions of the banking center, located in the public domain. So the robot can act not only as a guide, but also to provide information services.
Recently, a growing number of so-called service robots. Here, a South Korean company ED Corporation has developed a robot CIROMI , who works in the cinema. And also, we wrote about a robot RoboPal or Kompai robot , which helps older people in Japan.
