LG starts trial service of intelligent robots at Incheon Airport.

SEOUL, Feb. 21 (Yonhap) — LG Electronics Inc. said Tuesday it has launched a trial service of its two intelligent robots at the Incheon International Airport, the main gateway to South Korea.

LG unveiled the new line-up of robots featuring artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and voice recognition technology from Amazon’s Alexa at the annual Consumer Electronics Show last month.

One of the two robots serves as a notification center that displays information on its screen to help improve travelers’ experience. Another robot is designed to clean up the airport, LG said.

In a previous statement, LG said the new line-up of robots is “able to navigate complex environments and decipher the most efficient and effective path to accomplish tasks, making people’s lives easier at every touch-point.”

LG plans to complete the trial service during the first-half of this year and launch a formal service during the second-half of this year.
