Full Description
The company is encouraging the introduction of these service in various outlets, like supermarkets and can be used to disinfect the environments or be used for promotional actions by going around the store to distribute leaflets, freebies, and samples, among other things. For mid-to-high-end restaurants, pubs and lounge bar businesses the robots will be ideal and used to take orders and deliver plates to tables, providing a unique and efficient dining experience.

By mapping the arrangement of the tables, it is also possible to use the robots as a companion, to be placed at the entrance if there is a customer reservation.
For the retail industry, and thanks to the use of the robots inside shopping centres, both small and large, it will be possible to have an assistant to welcome customers, but also a promoter to support merchants. The robots have the necessary technology to welcome customers to the various entrances and quickly accompany them to the point of interest without unnecessary waste of time for research or understanding the right route.
The innovation of the robots can also be exploited within offices and workspaces in general. In fact, the latest generation of waiter robots are designed for intelligent delivery and adopted by companies around the world, and can be used to distribute things in the workplace, passing through multiple offices and meeting rooms.
