Robotic trials now at KIA

To help passengers get around the Kempegowda International Airport (KIA), the authorities there have installed 10 robot helpers.

Put up on a trial basis, these robots are designed to eventually help travellers get directed to the correct boarding gate, shopping areas, baggage claim and more.

Now seen as a trial in the airport’s existing terminal, the robots called ‘Temi’ will guide passengers to even drinking water facilities and washrooms. Airport officials said these are still on a pilot basis, and the robots are fed many more questions that can come from passengers.
