Singapore is a fast-growing technological hub that aims to push the boundaries of what can be achieved with technology. Ranging from robot cleaners and contact-free technology as well as virtual tours, AI concierges, Holograms and futuristic F&B solutions, there is plenty of innovation in terms of smart living and accessibility for people who visit Singapore.
AI Concierges and Accommodation
The hospitality industry in Singapore has embraced AI and automation to enhance its service quality and minimise the need for physical interactions. They have introduced mobile check-ins, contactless payments, and chatbots to cater to customer needs and reduce waiting time. Additionally, AI-powered digital concierges are now available to handle inquiries and even place room service orders. For example, places like lyf Funan Singapore only offer cashless payment methods to enhance guest experience when you choose to book a studio apartment. Singapore has many such affordable technologically advanced homestays.
Modern Retail with Cutting-edge Technology
With the integration of Augmented Reality (AR), walkways have been transformed into modern spaces that allow you to browse their extensive catalogues online. Malls have adopted state-of-the-art technology that enhances the visitor’s shopping experience.
Virtual Reality
Virtual Reality arcades are a popular entertainment form for many people who visit Singapore. Headrock VR at Sentosa offers 11 immersive rides, with fantasy, horror and adventure-themed rides. These rides are suitable for children aged 6 and above and are a great way to spend quality family time adventuring together. Hologate in Funan offers another virtual reality arcade that has simulations that would have you piloting a tank and blasting robots.
Robots and Cleaning
As you walk around the city, you will come across robots that have been programmed to keep the cities clean. The very first time you will come in contact with these cute little cleaning robots will be at the Changi Airport where you may come across one of the 15 robots who scrub, mop and even offer concierge services. These small robots can wink and even converse with passers-by, and if you scan the QR code of the robot, you will be able to ask it questions about its name and functions.
