The Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA) in Dubai is a leading organization responsible for regulating and advancing the telecommunications and digital government sectors in the United Arab Emirates.
For the prestigious Gulf Information Technology Exhibition (GITEX) 2023 held in Dubai, TDRA sought to elevate attendee engagement and showcase their commitment to technological innovation.
TDRA engaged our team to develop an immersive experience for GITEX 2023 attendees that would combine artificial intelligence with interactive elements. The goal was to create a memorable and engaging activity that would highlight TDRA’s role in driving digital transformation while providing valuable insights into attendee preferences and interests.
We proposed a cutting-edge solution centered around an AI-powered interactive photo-booth, tailored to TDRA’s objectives and the unique atmosphere of GITEX 2023:
1. AI Avatar Interaction
- We developed a sophisticated AI avatar capable of engaging attendees in natural conversation.
- The avatar posed open-ended questions related to attendee preferences for the portrait, allowing for personalized interactions.
- Leveraging advanced natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, the AI adapted its conversation flow based on the responses provided by attendees.
2. Portrait Generation
- Developing the AI Draw functionality, our system generated personalized portraits based on attendee responses.
- The AI translated textual input into visually stunning portraits, capturing the essence of each attendee's personality and interests.
- Attendees were amazed by the creativity and accuracy of the AI-generated portraits, fostering a sense of connection and excitement.
3. Registration Integration
- To streamline the registration process, the AI avatar prompted attendees to provide their registration information.
- Attendees could input their details using a touchscreen interface, ensuring a seamless and efficient data collection process.
- TDRA gained valuable insights into attendee demographics and preferences, enabling them to tailor future initiatives and engagements effectively.
4. Digital Delivery and Display
- Upon completion, the AI-generated portraits were instantly converted into digital format.
- Attendees received their personalized portraits from downloading them via QR code displayed on screen and creating a buzz around the TDRA booth.
- The portraits were also showcased on different screens within the TDRA stand on that activation, attracting attention and generating interest among event attendees.
5. Media Coverage and Public Reception
In addition to the overwhelming success experienced at GITEX 2023, our AI-powered interactive photo-booth garnered significant attention from the media and various platforms, further amplifying its impact and reach.
6. Media Exposure
