In accordance with the manufacturing company, this robot is designed to be able to satisfy the desires of customers and to carry out deliveries of products – from toothpaste as towels or even coffee – at the door of their room.
For the time being, the company has an army of 12 ρομπομπάτλερ who “work” in well-known chains of luxury hotels such as.x. “Residence Inn by Marriott” in Los Angeles.
The particular hotel even the reliable Relay – as evidenced by his name – can, among other things, to bring to the customer his favorite cup of coffee… Starbucks.
A robotic servant everywhere
The robot has a height of almost one metre and the upper part has a “glove box” inside which is placed the object requested by the client, while at the front houses a touch screen.
With the help of the wireless connection of the robot informs the client that it has reached the door of his room, reveals the product requested and then calls wirelessly the elevator to return again to the base of the.

“For decades, the robot was very complicated, very expensive and possibly not entirely safe in order to live in harmony with humans,” says Steve Κάζενς, ceo of the american company.
“Thanks to the rapid developments in the field of robotic systems and reduce their cost, these problems don’t exist anymore.
The moment where robots will be “fishing pole” in our every desire is here and so our robots in the field of hospitality were created to do exactly that”
