Define the visitor experience
Explain what the robot should do: welcome visitors, present a message, guide a demonstration or support a staged interaction. State the venue, audience, schedule and languages. Ask the supplier to distinguish a repeatable demonstrated capability from a proposed custom feature.
Confirm the practical requirements
Discuss transport, venue access, floor surfaces, power, charging, network connectivity and storage. Identify rehearsal time and the person responsible for coordinating with the venue. Ask whether an operator remains present throughout the event.
Approve content and interaction
Review any scripts, branding, recordings or visitor data collection before the event. Agree who supplies content and what changes are included. Do not assume the robot can safely or reliably handle any unscripted interaction.
Define supervision and contingency
The supplier and venue should confirm appropriate supervision and safety arrangements. Agree a fallback experience if the robot is unavailable or the network fails. Put the escalation contact and decision-making responsibilities in writing.
Confirm the total commercial scope
Ask for dates, operating hours, preparation time, travel, accommodation where relevant, setup, dismantling, insurance responsibilities and cancellation terms to be stated in the offer. An enquiry does not reserve the equipment or the operator.
Editorial guidance, not a product test, safety certification or promise of commercial availability. Confirm requirements with an appropriately qualified supplier.
