国内互联网巨头阿里巴巴旗下的一家酒店与上周二开门迎客，该酒店随处可见人工智能和机器人，可使办理入住、灯光调控和房间服务等一系列流程实现自动化。

Customers can check into the hotel by simply scanning their faces. The facial recognition system installed in the hotel also enables customers to use their faces as key cards to open doors and access other hotel services.
顾客只需“刷脸”即可办理入住。酒店里安装的脸部识别系统还能让顾客用自己的脸当钥匙卡，来开门和使用其他酒店服务。

Users also can control the lights, television and curtains in the room via Alibaba's voice-activated digital assistant, while robots are deployed to serve dishes, cocktails and coffee.
此外，顾客还可以通过阿里巴巴的声控数字助理控制房间内的灯光、电视和窗帘，酒店还派机器人送餐、提供鸡尾酒和咖啡。
