The company 'Expert Hub Robotics' founder and general director Jaya Bahati stated that the use of intelligent robots in the food service sector is one of the leading global trends in the hospitality business across all its manifestations. Robots, equipped with advanced artificial intelligence technologies, can quickly react and are programmed to satisfy the needs of restaurants, hotels, cafes, or entertainment zones.
Within the exhibition, various models of such devices were considered, which can be utilized in different organizations operating in Dubai and having a significant demand for smart robots, specializing in food and beverage service.
