MANZINI - His Majesty King Mswati III was highly impressed with a rare invention
in the form of a robot that can sing his praises.
The King was touring different trade exhibition stalls at the Eswatini
International Trade Fair at Mavuso Trade and Exhibition Centre yesterday. The
robot, which was invented at the Royal Science and Technology Park (RSTP), is an
automatic device that has multiple functionalities which, in this case, include
singing the King’s praises.
It has security features that include locking and unlocking doors, alerting home
owners on anyone who made a stop at their home, and many other functions. RSTP
Chief Executive Officer Vumile Dlamini, explained to the head of State that the
country was thriving to reach a significant level of artificial intelligence,
hence the invention.
In appreciating the automatic device, the King highlighted that he would make
time to visit the park and appreciate the gadget with enough time to hear about
its invention. The King was with his guests, who included King Letsie III of
Lesotho, former Botswana President Ian Khama and former South Africa President
Jacob Zuma. The King and his guests toured about 40 exhibition stalls, where
they appreciated the business that these entities were engaged in. The King’s
first stop was the Inyatsi Group Holdings, where he was shown the different
entities under the group.
