Autonomous Receptionist Robot Dog
Overview
This project aims to enhance the efficiency and uniqueness of receptionists' tasks, specifically greeting and guiding visitors to their destinations. By utilizing innovative technology in artificial intelligence, a smart check-in web application, and 3D LiDAR, this project aims to be a reliable and efficient solution for guests in need of assistance. In an educational context, the Autonomous Robot Dog will handle welcoming and guiding students, while also being an enjoyable and memorable experience for all users.
Community Benefit
After implementation, it is expected that the workload and stress on academic advising receptionists will decrease, allowing them to focus on more important tasks such as completing sensitive paperwork, taking more urgent phone calls, and assisting students in need. It is also expected that interest in FAU’s technology programs among incoming students will increase, as well as a closer-knit community of those who have interacted with the Autonomous Receptionist Robot Dog.
