The Airport of Geneva and Bluebotics have developed an innovative robot. The robot moves around in the airport and is looking for contacts. It helps travellers looking for a trolley, a money exchange or toilets. The robot accompanies the travellers to the location and at the same time it helps to carry forward the reflections on the concept of the service. The robot is innovative in two ways. The first innovation is the navigation system. Similar system exist however they need cables on the floor or other references. The Bluebotics navigation system doesn’t need anything. The second innovation is the application. It’s the first robot which helps passengers in an airport to access different services.
