Conversational Agents for Intelligent Buildings

Weronika Sieińska, Christian Dondrup, Nancie Gunson, Oliver Lemon


Abstract
We will demonstrate a deployed conversational AI system that acts as a host of a smart-building on a university campus. The system combines open-domain social conversation with task-based conversation regarding navigation in the building, live resource updates (e.g. available computers) and events in the building. We are able to demonstrate the system on several platforms: Google Home devices, Android phones, and a Furhat robot.
