This robot has strong personality that delights human experience especially in retail environment. Equipped with camera-based AI system, this robot follows shoppers around and provides valuable data for the retailers about shopper behavior.

NextOfKin Creatives explains this project was done before pandemic, unfortunately, COVID-19 has undoubtedly hit and disrupted the retail services. With so many restrictions in place to minimize human interactions, it is possible that Accel Robotics Smart Retail Assistant can bridge customer service gap to provide insights to the retailers about their consumers. This robot features soft and friendly form, the balance between affability and technical sophistication has resulted in a cute and friendly-looking robot.
