In a bid to enhance the pilgrimage experience, Saudi Arabia launches an AI robot, dubbed the ‘Guidance Roboto’, aimed at serving pilgrims and Umrah performers.

The Presidency of Religious Affairs at the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque pioneers the use of cutting-edge technologies, including the Guidance Robot, to streamline the rituals of Hajj and Umrah.

This innovative robot responds to pilgrims' inquiries regarding religious rituals with precision, drawing from approved religious fatwas and offering simplified explanations in multiple languages, including Arabic, English, French, and more, catering to a diverse global audience.

Equipped with advanced features such as a 21-inch touch screen, high-resolution cameras, and crystal-clear speakers, the robot ensures seamless communication and efficient service delivery.

Utilizing a high-speed Wi-Fi network, the robot facilitates fast data transmission, enabling swift responses to pilgrims' queries.

A standout feature is the robot's capability to facilitate direct communication between visitors and scholars, providing real-time guidance on religious matters.

Moreover, the robot offers simultaneous translation of sermons and religious lessons, eliminating language barriers and making insightful teachings accessible to all.

This groundbreaking initiative not only saves pilgrims valuable time but also ensures round-the-clock support, irrespective of cultural or linguistic backgrounds.
