Emirates Just Unveiled The World’s First Robot Check-In Assistant
The airline’s Dubai check-in center lets travelers drop their luggage 24 hours and up to 4 hours before a flight.
The Dubai-based airline, Emirates, has launched a new check-in facility at the ICD Brookfield Place in the Dubai International Financial Centre featuring the world’s first robot check-in assistant.
The robot, named Sara, can assist customers with a wide range of services, including bookings, check-ins, and luggage drop-offs between 08:00 and 10:00 daily.
After unveiling the new service, Adel Al Redha, COO of Emirates, noted, “It is a state-of-the-art facility, and it is the next level of privilege that we can offer our customers. People can avoid busy periods at the airport and minimize queuing”.
The robot check-in service went operational on Thursday, April 27, and allows customers to drop off luggage as soon as 24 hours and up to 4 hours before a flight, allowing a leisurely and stress-free airport experience.
Emirates flyers can also use the check-in service for expert advice and offers on popular destinations, as well as to manage bookings, purchase upgrades, and choose their preferred seats.

The robot check-in service premiered at Emirates HQ earlier this year and can scan passengers’ faces and match them to travel documents. With more time on their hands after using the new automated system, Emirates customers will also be able to enjoy discounted services at a range of Brookfield Place facilities, including restaurants, gyms, and high-end stores.
When it’s time to fly, Emirates passengers can travel directly to the airport via taxi or a dedicated Emirates chauffeur service. In addition, the Financial Centre Metro Station connecting Airport Terminal 3 Metro Station is a short 10-minute walk from the ICD.

Samsung Galaxy Ring Wearable Will Launch In Eight Sizes
A recent Korean report reveals the model numbers of the new health tracking device, as well as details of its key features.
The global launch of the Samsung Galaxy Ring is hotly anticipated, with details about the next-gen wearable gradually emerging since the company’s teaser announcement back in January. Now, a report has also unveiled the model numbers for the device, suggesting it will be available in eight different sizes.
While Samsung has yet to divulge detailed specs and features of the Galaxy Ring, it’s likely to feature an array of health and sleep monitoring functionalities, while boasting a battery life of up to nine days on a single charge.
As per a Galaxy Club report, there are currently eight confirmed variants of the Galaxy Ring: SM-Q500, SM-Q501, SM-Q502, SM-Q505, SM-Q506, SM-Q507, SM-Q508, and SM-Q509.
However, the mystery shrouding two absent model numbers persists, leaving speculation as to whether they signify additional sizes or if Samsung plans to unveil a later ninth variant of the ring, as previously hinted. There’s conjecture that these models may correspond to US ring sizes 5 and above, commencing with the SMQ500, with subsequent numbers potentially indicating larger ring sizes, possibly reaching up to size 13, aligning with model number SM-Q509.

Recent Korean reports have shed light on how Samsung’s Mobile eXperience division (MX) collaborated with the Home Appliance department to integrate Samsung Food with the Galaxy Ring: Tailored for daily activity tracking, the Galaxy Ring, when paired with Samsung Food and an intelligent Samsung refrigerator featuring AI vision, delivers personalized dietary guidance based on calorie intake and BMI.
Samsung is banking on the user-friendly interface and high durability of the ring to redefine the healthcare wearables landscape. Meanwhile, Apple is also making strides in the development of a smart ring, aimed at monitoring users’ health biometrics discreetly when worn on the finger. According to the Electronic Times report, Apple has been closely monitoring market interest in this more inconspicuous alternative to a traditional watch.
