Robot to guide passengers in Munich Airport

SHE is 120 centimeters tall, with sparkling, round eyes and a pleasant voice, “Josie Pepper” the robot will be answering questions for passengers in Terminal 2. Whether they need directions to their gate or want to stop at a certain restaurant or shop – #JosiePepper will look them in the eyes and give them a prompt answer.

With the rollout of Josie Pepper, Munich Airport and Lufthansa are breaking new ground: It is the first-ever test of a humanoid #robot equipped with artificial intelligence at a German airport. For the next few weeks, Josie Pepper will welcome travelers to the non-public area of Terminal 2, which is jointly operated by Munich Airport and Lufthansa. In her initial deployment, Josie Pepper, who speaks English, will await passengers at the top of the ramp leading to the shuttle connecting the main terminal to the satellite building. This test phase will be used to show whether Josie Pepper is accepted by passengers.

Pepper was developed by the French company SoftBank Robotics. The lady robot was given the name “Josie” by the staff of Munich Airport and Lufthansa when she arrived at the airport.

Costa Cruises appoint robot staff

THE WORLD’S first humanoid robot will join #CostaCruises staff from spring 2016, working on board the Costa Diadema and sister ship AIDAprima. 

Costa Cruises has signed an agreement with the French company Aldebaran, a subsidiary of the SoftBank Group, for the world’s first deployment of ‘Pepper’ #robots on board #cruiseships.

The robots are capable – it says here – of reading human emotions and are built to interact with people by communicating through intuitive interfaces including voice and touch. The machines speak fluent German, Italian, and English, and will be able to provide recommendations on restaurants, events, and excursions. The company says they will improve the ‘customer experience’.

Pepper robots takes the environment and surroundings into account and its joints and wheels enable it to move fluidly. Its 3D camera allows it to detect people and their movements, and it’s able to analyze expressions and voice tones.
