O1. Robots in South Korea

Starting off, we have robots in South Korea, which are helping
human beings by recording the temperatures of the people passing
by. As we all know that having high temperatures is symptom of
coronavirus. So, let’s know how this robot is helping us. This robot
has two major functions. Number one - this robot automatically records the
temperature of visitors and can warn officials when a person’s temperature is too
high. Number two-this machine can also disinfect the floor and release small amounts
of fluid for people to clean their hands. When this machine finds out if individuals are
too close, it warns them saying “please take part in social distancing”. It also detects
if people are wearing face coverings. This machine also can disinfect 33-square-meter
area in about 10 minutes.
02. Robots in movie theaters

Moving on, we have robots in movie theaters which help
people/assist movie-goers in buying tickets and food, as
well guiding them to their seats.

03. Delivery vehicles/machines
On third place, we have food
delivery robots. As we all know
that contactless deliveries are more preferable these days.
Robots have come into action for delivering food orders. For
e.g. Starship-is a company which has designed vehicles to
deliver food from your nearby restaurant to your doorstep. It
can carry up to nine kilograms of weight. It also reduces
human interaction in terms of social distancing and saves
time as well. These robots called starships can deliver from
groceries to your favourite food. These machines are
currently being operated in four countries - the United States, the United Kingdom,
Germany, and Estonia.
