According to AI TIMES, Cleon will begin a pilot operation of an interactive AI station attendant at Seoul Station on Oct. 19, in cooperation with Korail, using Samsung Electronics' glasses-free 3D display. Passengers will be able to receive guidance by communicating in real time with the AI on the three-dimensional screen in multiple languages. The service is an attempt to turn digital signage from a device that simply displays information into a guidance system that responds to questions. The AI is designed to understand users' question intent and conversation flow, answer accordingly, and also deliver nonverbal expressions such as facial movements and eye contact. Cleon is also considering expanding the service beyond transportation facilities to AI concierges in hotels and AI promoters in stores. It is also preparing a cloud-based operating platform so companies can more easily deploy and manage such conversational AI.

Perspective

This initiative is important because it serves as a test of whether a screen can evolve beyond a simple display device into a point of contact that can respond on behalf of people in the field. If the pilot produces meaningful results, it could change service design in spaces where staffing is difficult or multilingual support is needed. At the same time, it shows that the key to broader adoption lies less in flashy three-dimensional visuals than in whether actual users can converse without inconvenience and whether operators can manage the system easily.
