A South Korean cinema recently unveiled the CIROMI robot along with its newly renovated space.

ED Corporation built the CIROMI robot to keep people entertained during long line-ups at the theater. This android greets people, has a touchscreen with games, and allows visitors to send e-mail and take pictures. Tickets can't be purchased from the CIROMI robot yet, but the company is in the process of making a model with that feature.
