The Artificial Intelligence Revolution Rise of the Chatbots
A Chatbot (also known as Bot, IM bot, interactive agent, or Artificial Conversational Entity) is a computer program or an artificial intelligence which conducts a conversation via auditory or textual methods. Such programs are often designed to convincingly simulate how a human would behave as a conversational partner.
Chatbots are typically used in dialog systems for various practical purposes including customer service or information acquisition.
This customer service chatbot was developed to represent an organization at a 37th annual GITEX Technology week held on 8th - 12th Oct 2017.
Here, the purpose of developing a Chatbot is to meet and greet each visitor coming to attend GITEX event based on their gender or religion. The Chatbot needs to be deployed on an Android tablet which is mounted on a robot's face.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for scanning badge of each visitor
Implementation of Image Recognition technology for scanning each visitor's image
A conversational bot needs to be developed in such an intelligent way that it will automatically scan visitor's conference badge and identify whether the person is male, female or a native sheikh person.
The major benefit of implementing the Chatbot in a technological event is to help companies showcase their products, services and other offerings along with their use case scenarios to target and fulfill the requirements of each visitor.
In general, Chatbot is used to avoid the dependency on agents which can handle only few conversations at the same time and also proves to be very helpful for businesses that receive lot of enquiries on daily basis.
