Incheon airport to get a high-tech makeover

LG Electronics and Incheon International Airport Corporation have joined forces to upgrade the nation's largest international airport to what is billed as a smarter and more tech-savvy one. The two parties signed a memorandum of understanding Friday which says LG Electronics will deploy automated robots and Internet of Things technology to facilities at the airport. Among the new services are robots that will stroll around the airport giving directions to airport newcomers. The guide service will be provided in Korean, English, Japanese and Chinese. Some of the robots will clean the floors, organize luggage and check security.
