Robotic Marketing Devices presents SalesBot – first humanoid robot for deployment in sales
Keywords: Robots, Sales
Robotic Marketing Devices (RMD) has developed SalesBot® – the first humanoid robot to be implemented in sales support. SalesBot® autonomously responds to client requests and is able to complete simple business transactions.
Thanks to the Physical Interaction Interface developed by RMD, SalesBot ® can complement or even replace human sales personnel. The basic configuration of SalesBot ® includes more than 12 basic emotions and a sales vocabulary covering approximately 500 standard situations. The robot is suited for outlets with large surface areas and high customer fluctuation.
Among other technologies, AIML (Artificial Intelligence Markup Language) and VME (Vector-based Mimic Engine) were used for the development of SalesBot ®.
Robotic Marketing Devices Inc. has specialized in the development of humanoid and non-humanoid robots for marketing purposes. Our mission is to improve sales and promotion through the usage of new forms of human-machine interaction.
