  • This paper aims to show that cooperative robots, which have only been used in manufacturing sites, are expanding their scope of use in daily living spaces due to the expansion of non-face-to-face services. By combining robots and IoT technologies in terms of diversifying services in daily life and customized service areas, it is expected that the general public will also have easy access to smart technologies, and these technologies will be used in more areas. The robot barista system will provide customers with the services they want, monitoring, maintenance, and management of the system, making this paper convenient for customers, as well as managers who run stores, maintenance and repair, and engineers who design the system. This paper attempts to demonstrate this through a structure called Robopresso.

  • Artificial intelligence technology is widely used in industrial and smart home fields such as manufacturing robots, artificial intelligence speakers, and robot vacuum cleaners. In this paper, we designed and implemented a 1:1 chatbot system based on artificial intelligence for use in RCMS (Real-time Cash Management System). The RCMS chatbot implemented in this paper was constructed with a total of 210 query scenarios in nine areas, including research expenses and system usage, based on 13,500 questions and answers from existing online bulletin boards. The chatbot is expected to solve the problem of insufficient number of counselors and to increase user satisfaction by responding to the researcher's inquiries after working hours, and the recommendation service for the cost of use, which had the most inquiries from researchers, reduces the number of consultations. It is expected to improve the quality of answers to other counseling inquiries.

  • In this era that technology is replacing human labor is coming. Like the introduction of Factory Automation and Smart Factory to enhance the productivity in manufacturing works in companies, RPA (Robotic Process Automation) is being applied to strengthen the competiveness in service & office work of companies. But, RPA itself is not mature enough to be the specific technology or solution, but burgeoning as the conceptual technology alternatives to automate the business process harnessed with the concept of software robots, artificial intelligence etc. The biggest difference that the introduction of RPA can make is the transition of the work based on 'human labor', to the 'digital labor' that could result in the replacement of human labor itself with that. Considering this kind of impact to change the concept of labor, the discussion for the future policy for this is inevitable. In this paper, beginning from the overview of RPA, relevant concerns & consideration for the application of RPA will be described based on the understanding of industrial & technology trends and expected future of RPA.
