The unstoppable trend of smart homes

In recent years, the rise of 'smart home devices' has not only led to the release of various products by major tech companies but also propelled the popularity of voice assistants, chatbots, and companion robots. The 'voice shopping' market is set to become the next trend in retail. According to a survey by Juniper Research, by 2023, the market size for transactions based on chatbots is expected to surge from $7.3 billion in 2018 to $112 billion!

A well-known domestic manufacturer of household robots offers its self-developed educational and companion service robots, with the 'Kebi Student Robot' as its flagship product. However, due to its insufficient voice interaction capabilities with users, consumers often find the robot not smart enough and quickly lose interest, leading to abandonment. This has a long-term negative impact on the purchasing decisions of other consumers.

Hello Kebi Student, can you understand what I'm saying?

Surveys have found that many users of 'Kebi Student Robot' especially enjoy talking or chatting with the robot, covering a wide range of topics. However, using just Google or Microsoft's cloud platforms for developing voice chat conversations is not cheap. With Google charging based on service volume, system operational costs are high, and these vary dynamically causing major difficulties in system cost management.

On the other hand, the robot manufacturing service provider has already invested significant resources in the development of hardware, software, and digital content for Kebi Student Robot. Developing natural language dialogue and semantic understanding technologies in-house would require a significant amount of manpower and is slow. With limited resources, there's an urgent need to seek third-party solutions to enhance the robot's conversational service capabilities and development efficiency.
