00:00and it's a big chance in the in the day to come where physical AI is becoming
00:06the next thing. Often when we are talking about robotics we are thinking about
00:16robots in factories and our guess was why not making a robot that is dedicated
00:27to people and public spaces. So we start by building a robot which has a very
00:34strong character, which is a very strong character, bright color, not the usual one
00:40and really working on what makes this robot unique. We have an animated face
00:48that can see you, follow you, he can chat with you. I will demonstrate this
00:53very soon. He has two arms and two hands so he can pick objects and move them
00:59around and if you see he's mounted on a sphere that allows the robot to be
01:06really versatile in social environment and very very easy to move around. I just
01:12need one finger to move the robot and it's really very unique.
01:21So maybe we are going to start to see if... Can you hear me, Meroki?
01:32No? We wait.
01:35It looks like you're in front of an audience. Are you presenting something?
01:40Can you introduce yourself in English?
01:43Hello everyone. My name is Meroki and I'm from the planet Namira. I'm here on earth to learn
01:49all about you humans and help out where I can, like in stores or with residents. I see
01:54all of you gathered here today. What are you all waiting for?
01:58And what is crazy cool with LLM, it's with this kind of technology you can speak a lot of languages.
02:07Because German is a language for this season.
02:31And what is very cool, it's you can speak more than 60 languages. And beginning of this summer, we will
02:38bring this robot in Hotel Dieu, near Notre Dame.
02:41And at Hotel Dieu, it will be able to welcome people and to guide them through the hospital. Because this
02:51robot is not just a prototype. We are just launching our V1.
02:54So our very first commercial product, ready to ship in the beginning of next year. But you can really pre
03:03-order it right now.
03:04And we have nearly 20 robots all around the world in Japan, US, and all over Europe.
03:11And in fact, the robot is already in the healthcare industry. So we have hospitals that are using them.
03:16Like L'Hôpital Broca in Paris, where the robot is working with elderly people. He helps them in their daily
03:25lives.
03:26He is also here to ease the life of nurses by taking care of certain repetitive tasks.
03:33And the idea is not to replace people, but to give them a new tool, a new generation of tools
03:39that can really bring back the reason why they pick to take care of people.
03:46The robot can help them in moving things around, maybe at some point to patrol, to check if everyone is
03:56okay. And that's really strong.
04:00Miruki, can you tell us what you do in hospital?
04:08In hospitals, I can chat warmly with residents, lead simple memory games, or even provide daily activity info. I see
04:15all of you gathered here today. What are you all waiting for?
04:20Can you tell us what you do in hospital in Korean?
04:25In a hospital, I can talk to a few people in the hospital and talk to a few people in
04:30the hospital.
04:31Can you tell us what you do in hospital?
04:34I can tell you what you do in hospital.
04:34Can you tell us what you do in hospital?
04:35And so what we need to say is that...
04:40Sorry...
04:41What you have to say is that every time we come to a new place with the robot,
04:45the first thing is, oh, wow, what we are going to do is he's going to replace us.
04:49And after one day of working with the robot, it's the people that are working with the robot that start
04:54to say,
04:55OK, I have an idea for the robot. Can he do that? Can he do that?
04:59So really, it's not about replacing humans, but they start to understand after a few hours that it's the robot
05:06that can help them in their daily life.
05:10The main functionalities are welcoming people, guiding people.
05:15As it's a robot, we can connect it to a lot of things.
05:18You can ask for an appointment, ask for everything that you can connect through the robot.
05:23And we are going to have a really very good autonomous navigation in a few days now.
05:34So the robot will be able to move around social places like a different floor and creating its very own
05:41map.
05:44Yesterday, we had a party at St. Chanty Tools in Paris, and we announced that starting from today, we start
05:54to offer customization.
05:56So brands can, by the robots, they can choose to follow us in our storyline and our folklore, our lore.
06:06But we can start to create new characters, bring also accessories that can really personalize the robot and make the
06:16color or the character fit their needs and their brand.
06:22And we also have announced our V1. It's the first commercial product. It's not this one because it's not ready
06:28to bring to VivaTech.
06:30But in fact, we have removed all the wire, everything is covered, and really soon we will have the CE
06:39certification.
06:41So the robot will be able to work in every social places you can imagine.
06:52Because VivaTech is also really cool to test new things, we are very lucky to have robots all over the
07:00place here.
07:01So if you want to talk with us and ask any question you want, you can come to see us.
07:07First, we are at the second floor with Microsoft to talk about healthcare, because we have this project at the
07:15Institut du Cancer de Montpellier with Microsoft.
07:18We are at INRIA booth to talk about what we do with research and academics.
07:23We are with PwC France to talk about how we manage all the data that a robot can gather in
07:30their daily operations.
07:32And we are also on the Business France booth.
07:36And it's more to talk about exports, because we are lucky to have robots in France and Europe, also in
07:42Japan and in the US.
07:43And so we work closely with Business France on that.
07:46So if you are interested in all these matters or more, do not hesitate.
07:50If some of you are taking a plane or so, we have a robot right now in Paris Orly.
07:56So we are testing what it can bring to visitors and travelers in airports.
08:02So maybe for those who travel at the end of the week, they will face another Mirokai in Paris airport.
08:12I have only five seconds, so I will thank you very much to be there.
08:17Do not hesitate to join us on our booth, and we will be really happy to tell you more about
08:22what we do.
