Munich Airport Adds Robot Helpers

Service robots have been deployed at Munich Airports Terminal 2 to assist passengers with information. The two Ottobots are based in the gate areas and baggage reclaim zones.
Guests can scan a QR code on the side of the robot using their mobile phone or tablet device, which will direct them to Lufthansas chat assistant for self-service options.
This enables passengers to access all the relevant and necessary information regarding their flight, or, in the case of flight disruption or changes to their schedule, they can use it to rebook their journey or even request a refund.
In the future, Munich Airport plans to use the Ottobots to distribute goods such as bottled water to passengers.
