PROJECT TOPICCommercial Services & Consumer Systems
Contactless Hospitality Concierge Kiosk
A hospitality service automation concept investigating motorized RFID card encoders, optical passport MRZ scanners, and thermal receipt printing to automate hotel check-in and check-out workflows.
Frictionless Hotel Guest Reception Automation
- ✓Processes guest identity verification and hotel keycard issuance in under 1 minute.
- ✓Encodes high-frequency RFID hotel keycards internally with zero manual handling.
- ✓Constructed with tamper-resistant sheet metal and motorized card capture hoppers.
The Engineering Challenge
Problem / Objective
Peak hotel check-in hours create long lobby queues, causing traveler frustration and overburdening front-desk hospitality staff.
