Your Robotic Hotel Experience
Misty 11 has great aspirations to be a key part of the hospitality industry. The cute, little rolling robot is the invention of Misty Robotics, based in Boulder, Colorado and was just unveiled at CES 2020. Misty can detect humans, greet them, interact, provide information and responses. She can make reservations, call for assistance and even be part of point of sales systems. The little robot gives new meaning to the hospitality industry. Her inventors have designed her to go to work in a hotel near you very soon.
Open Source Code
What's ingenious about Misty is she is not limited to one task. This is part of an important, new emerging trend to design robots that are not limited to one use. They have capabilities that can be used in many ways. In the case of Misty, from room mapping to greeting customers and taking reservations. The open source code allows developers to customize her for a myriad of duties. The inventors at Misty Robotics say that Misty as a concierge is a "starting point to accelerate" her deployment in the hospitality industry.
