The robot revolution may be gentler than we thought. We're not sure if the robotic staff at a planned hotel in Japan will be tucking guests into their beds at night, but they'll be performing plenty of other traditional hospitality tasks.
Huis Ten Bosch, a theme park modeled after the Netherlands in Japan's
Nagasaki Prefecture, has announced plans to open a hotel with robot staff and
other advanced technologies.

The hotel will be called Henn-na Hotel , which translates as Strange Hotel.
According to the park, the first phrase of the two-story hotel will open on July
17 with 72 rooms.
The second phrase will be completed in 2016 with an additional 72 rooms.
Operating under the motto "A commitment for evolution," the hotel will feature
three "actroids" (robots with strong human likeness) that will act as
receptionists. They'll be able to engage in intelligent conversations with human guests. The hotel will also employ four service and porter robots, and others engaged in menial tasks such as cleaning. High-tech features keep prices low
"We'll make the most efficient hotel in the world," boasts Huis Ten Bosch
president Hideo Sawada .
Sawada says he hopes robots will eventually run 90% of the property.
"In the future, we're hoping to build 1,000 similar hotels around the world," says
Sawada, according to Japan's Nikkei News.
Other features will help make Henn-na the most futuristic low-cost hotel in the
industry, according to the company.
Guestroom doors will be accessed by facial-recognition technology.
Amenities provided in rooms will be kept minimal. Guests can request items
through a tablet when needed.
Instead of air-conditioning, a radiation panel will detect body heat in rooms and
adjust the temperature.
Solar power and other energy-saving features will be used to reduce operating
costs.
Bid for your room
Room rates will vary depending on demand.
Instead of being presented with a fixed price, guests will bid for rooms during
peak season. The highest bidders will secure rooms, though there will be a price
cap on bidding.
The hotel says room fees at opening will be from JPY7,000 ($60) for a single
room to JPY18,000 ($153), the highest possible price after bidding, for a triple
room.
Superior and deluxe rooms will cost more.

And the essence, relevance and beauty of humanity gradually fizzle out. It is evolutionary, but outrageous, policies should be made against this ideas.
