Having wrapped up with the Third Eastern Economic Forum in the Far Eastern city of Vladivostok, Vladimir Putin paid a visit to Perm near the Ural Mountains to inspect information technology development – and guess what? – he was met by a real robot.
“Hello Vladimir Vladimirovich, I am an autonomous service robot. Nice to meet you,” the android proudly introduced itself stretching out its hand toward the amused president.
The robot can print tickets, guide tourists and work with documents.
