Passengers scan their passport, put their bags in the robot, and go straight to the security checkpoint.

If any bag is found to be suspicious, the security personnel will be alerted automatically and given the owner’s details that were collected when the passport was scanned.

“We keep focusing on optimising customer experience by creating a convenient, non-interference check-in environment.”

Travellers can check in and drop their bags off from anywhere in the airport with the robot, instead of looking for the check-in desk.

Sinocloud believes that the new robot will accelerate the check-in process and decrease the workload of the check-in staff at airports.
