Cheetah Mobile introduces new robots for trade shows

December 1, 2020 by Mai Tao

Cheetah Mobile has introduced three new robots for trade shows – GreetBot, EngageBot and FanBot. The company says the robots will “elevate virtual and in-person event experience, offering Covid-safe solutions”. (See video below.)

Cheetah Mobile says it has launched its exhibition solutions in response to “the shifting environment in the events and trade show industry due to Covid-19”.

Implemented together, these robots help event planners and exhibitors provide contactless check-in, event information and venue layout guidance for in-person attendees or for those online.

The GreetBot is available in multiple models to provide additional functionality, including ID Certification and Thermo for touchless temperature readings.

The robots have slight differences, as highlighted below.

GreetBot: The GreetBot can respond to real-time inquires, as well as provide virtual venue tours, allowing remote participants to visit different destinations as if they were in person.

For example, at the 2020 Beijing International Automobile Exhibition (Auto China), online attendees voted for the automobiles they wanted to see, and the GreetBot displayed their top choices, creating an engaging experience.

EngageBot: The EngageBot can display detailed event information on its large screen to on-site attendees, such as the event agenda and venue map, as well as respond to participant questions via voice control. Utilizing advanced AI technology, the EngageBot acts as an on-the-ground marketing agent, eliminating human contact.

FanBot: With a maximum load capacity of 50 kg (110 lbs.), the FanBot is an autonomous mobile vending machine that proactively offers snacks and drinks to in-person event participants. Providing contactless service, it actively seeks consumers as it roams the halls of the venue, aiming to anticipate attendees’ needs.

To best serve event participants, the Exhibition Robots leverage OrionStar’s Speech OS, a powerful open operating system. It enables them to meet a speech accuracy of “more than 90 percent”, respond in 1.5 seconds or less, and detect consumers’ needs within a 5-meter radius.

In a press release, Cheetah Mobile says: “Understanding that many events in 2021 will be virtual, and in-person events will be different, we developed a solution to enable the event industry to continue to provide engaging experiences to attendees.

“We see this as another opportunity for humans and robots to work together and better the world we live in.”

OrionStar AI technology

All three robots are driven by the OrionStar AI Technology that seamlessly integrates six components to bring its industry-leading robots to life, including:

  • voice technologies (mouth), speech-to-text natural language processing (ears);
  • facial recognition and emotion perception (eyes), indoor navigation (legs);
  • six-axis commercial grade robotic arms (hands); and
  • industry-leading chip and proprietary AI algorithms (brain).

Earlier this year, 30 Exhibition Robots walked around the show floor at the China International Fair for Trade in Services, assisting attendees.
