Guests attending the Vibrant Gujarat Summit (VGS) next month will get a first-hand glimpse at a spate of latest technologies, which are being showcased by the state government. Right from the time they reach Ahmedabad airport, guests will be welcomed and guided by a robot.
Biology Electronics Aesthetics and Mechanics (BEAM) robots will be present at Ahmedabad airport while VGS is on, and they would exclusively service the invitees at the event. BEAM would not only welcome the guests but also provide them with information about the event and the accommodation available.
Principal secretary, tourism department, SJ Haider, said, "We have decided to offer an escort service to guests at VGS through BEAM. Units of this robot will be at Ahmedabad airport, and would be operated by persons sitting in Ahmedabad or Gandhinagar."
"We have completed all formalities to engage service providers of BEAM, and we will take a final call very soon on the number of units to be used. The expense behind this is a policy matter and cannot be disclosed, but it is not a huge amount for sure," Haider added.
