Question

You are asked to add speech to a robotic receptionist that sits at the front desk of a large organization. The robot has an animated face and can track users with a laser range finder. The system already has been used with type-in and print out information. Explain what their requirements and restrictions would be. How would these components interact with the existing dialog component? How would you evaluate it?

Answer 1

Refer below for the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Requirements:

Robot that is installed with the laser range finder detects when the person is coming and ask him the basic questions.

Hello, how are you. Welcome to the company. Where do you want to go?

Restrictions:

As there is speech recognition and text-to-speech components so it will help the user if the robot is unable to answer his questions.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The requirements would be that the receptionist robot detects the incoming person and speak;

Good morning (based on time), Welcome to XYZ organization. How can i help you. Do you need to visit HR, finance, marketing, sales, engineering etc representative or other function?

Now based on that a visitee information is printed out.

Limitation

A person comes who does not understand what robot speaks

Interaction with existing dialogue would be made possible through speech recognition system

The system will work well as speech recognition has now been used in many functions and robots have also now become quite advanced
