Summary

KUBI is an advanced conversational robot barista and receptionist at the automated co-working space Second Space in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, leveraging ElevenLabs' Conversational AI to create engaging and memorable interactions. KUBI's architecture employs a microservices framework with real-time event streaming, managing tasks such as facial recognition, object detection, receipt printing, and payment processing to offer human-like interactions. The "BigBoy" central service coordinates these microservices by processing incoming events and triggering appropriate scenarios, ensuring synchronized speech and gestures. Scenarios, which can dynamically respond to user actions, use AI-generated content for enhanced interaction, while ElevenLabs' APIs provide natural multilingual speech capabilities and real-time conversational responses. KUBI’s design reflects a specific personality combining elements from Deadpool and characters from popular games, and its flexible system can easily adapt to new markets like Japan and South Korea without additional development.
