New use of technology... Robots will soon be used in more complex
industries, such as banking in China. According to reports, a robot
lobby manager debuted at a bank in central China’s Luoyang city, Henan
Province, on Wednesday, to offer services such as ushering, guiding and
consulting...
The square-faced robot could not only respond to customers with
pre-recorded messages, but also engage in simple conversations, said
reports. Configured with face identification and voiceprint recognition
features, the robotic manager could search for human faces and reach
them for service..
Furthermore, it has a sense of humor. When a customer requests to
deposit a large sum of money, it responds, “Wow, Tuhao (Chinese slang
referring to wealthy but gaudy people), I want to be your friend!" The
machine is now under test and will be put into use very soon.
Chinese are really great when it comes to their technology that I have become interested to their culture and now I am learning chinese through skype at http://preply.com/en/chinese-by-skype . Hopefully, in the next 6 months I will be good in speaking Chinese.
