Locally made chatbots to assist delegates at IDEAS 2024

Innovative robots developed by Pakistani engineering universities will provide guidance and assistance to foreign delegates at the upcoming Defence Weapons Exhibition (IDEAS 2024) in November.

This initiative is part of the "Noor Pakistan" project, a collaboration between Dawood University of Engineering and Technology and Ziauddin University. Led by Dr Prof Samreen, Vice Chancellor of Dawood University, the project aims to create AI-powered robots designed for major national events.

The chatbot technology behind these robots is being developed under the direction of Dr Sheikh Muhammad Nafe from the Computer Science and Software Engineering Department at Ziauddin University. A student team, including Sharif Khan, Zoha, and Muhammad Saeed, is actively working on this project.

Dr Nafe explained that the objective is to develop an AI-powered chatbot capable of understanding and responding in multiple languages, specifically tailored for large-scale events.

The "Noor Pakistan" chatbot first appeared at an IEEE exhibition and will be officially launched at IDEAS 2024.

Approximately 40 chatbots will be deployed at the exhibition to help delegates navigate the venue, locate various halls and stalls, and answer queries in 25 different languages, ensuring a seamless experience for attendees.
