Kevia

Cantonese (original) / English

Pandemics send demand for robots surging, as we seek ways to limit virus transmission by limiting human contacts. Robots can substitute for humans in certain customer service activities and can even perform sanitary work at public facilities. The expanding role of robots in day-to-day life seems irreversible.

And thus “Kevia” was born—an intelligent robot that serves only its own interests. Kevia values its personal space and dislikes physical interaction with humans. Fellow visitors to PMQ may bump into this selfish intelligence as it wanders the site as it pleases, oblivious to the needs of the people around it.

Things That Move

我們設計了 Kevia – 一種不為人類服務的智能自助機器人。 它喜歡將自己網上的身份，不喜歡與人類進行身體互動。

有用的東西好多時侯就是去很極致地去做一件冇用的時候發現，我們就是想達到這一點。

我們都是以認真心態去完成 Kevia 所有技術上和機械的東西-Kevia 的骨架和功能上編程是一部可運作多功能的機械人，只是她不會表現出來。

會唔會有一日機械人發脾氣既時侯，我地要走埋去安慰佢呢?

實體既混合科技係我地強項，機械同電子既作品，再混合 digital同Interactive digital 既元素作為呈現方式。
