SAMI The Robot

SAMI The Robot

With a long history and a client list that reads like a Who's Who of Corporate America, SAMI the Robot has literally entertained tens of thousands of people over the years since his creation and activation. This SAMI unit, one of two, and the Proto unit, a more recent endeavor of ours have been all over the country doing everything from scripted and unscripted presentations for large corporations to working for the First Family in Washington DC. SAMI's versatility is rooted in his origins. Created by a small group of magicians originally, SAMI is the perfect illusion and consumate Master of Ceremonies, Guest Speaker, or All-around-Roll-around Human Interaction Specialist. Talking to SAMI is unlike anything one can ever experience. It is like meeting the future head-on, except that this future has a sense of humour and at the same time a very touching personality!

He does what a robot cannot do, yet noone can and has ever figured out how he DOES it!

SAMI is not a remote controlled machine where an operator stands off to the side and talks for, and controls, the machine. SAMI is the product of 6+ years of R&D to achieve the best illusion available today for robotic entertainment.

SAMI's name is an acronym which stands for Sales And Merchandising Informer, a salesperson by any other name, and as such, he has closed deals for companies while acting on their behalf at trade shows, corporate retreat gatherings, or even in a car dealership parking lot!

SAMI has been used in/on:

Hospitals

Corporate Board rooms

TV Stations

Talk Shows

Radio Stations

Resorts

Conventions

Trade Shows

Fairs

Magic Shows

Banks

Corporate Retreats

The Smithsonian Institution

The US Congress

Museums

Telethons

Chamber of Commerce gatherings

and more!

There is no tiring out SAMI or his crew. Upon arrival at a performance location, SAMI can be'hot' (ready to go) and can leave his specially designed transport van by himself and begin performing even before he leaves the ramp if that is desireable. At other times, he is secreted to a performance location where he is unveiled at an appropriate time where the element of surprise is necessary. Total time to activate him is less than 2 minutes from arrival.

To get messages across to people SAMI uses the gift of gab, either scripted or unscripted as alluded to above, plus he carries signs on his exterior that can be designed by the client or by our own graphic design group. SAMI is also tailored to distribute literature in a brochure style format so that after delivering product information verbally, he can follow up with a piece of takeaway literature for prospective clients. Finally, his all-star presence is complemented by a sound system that allows him to play messages and music, create sound effects, and do 80+ impressions of cartoon characters and people!

SAMI is a clean machine. He doesn't do off-color humour, is hilariously witty and extremely spontaneous. Watching him probe a crowd is unforgettable as he brings them out to dance (YES he does dance!) or converse in a way that they do not soon forget. For some corporate resorts, SAMI is written into the contract by the resort's corporate clients as a 'must have' as a contingency for attendance! When asked to come to museums, SAMI gives very complete tours of exhibits and of course is VERY knowledgable of most subject matter!

If you are interested in more information about SAMI or would like booking information, and show schedules please dont hesitate to call or write us! SAMI is the official FX Models.comBOT and does publicity tours in the New England area.

Below are some interesting images from various SAMI The Robot appearances.

SAMI with Chelsea Clinton at the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution where he spent 3 hours with the First Daughter at the time and gave her a tour of the complex. SAMI was brought in by EDS Corporation for the event.

Senator Strom Thurmond poses with SAMI on another night of events at the Information Age Exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History.

Congressman Dingle is delighted to talk with SAMI. SAMI just finished dispensing the Information Age Exhibit map seen in the Congressman's hand.

Another literature distribution opportunity.

SAMI at a Trade Show held in a shopping mall. Here we had SAMI filled with information both verbal and on robot-distributed literature that helped our client sell windows! SAMI was instrumental in bringing potential clients to the client booth and a number of them purchased product as a result of the combined marketing effort of SAMI and salesperson in the booth.

At that same Trade Show breaking up some of the people from the Wireless Services group. SAMI noticed that one of them had an earpiece and wire dangling and asked him if he was a robot too.

SAMI working for Loctite corporation at the world's largest hardware show held in Chicago. He introduced buyers to new products and gave them educational information about the product lines. He also did on-camera interviews with a national Home and Garden TV show that was represented there.

SAMI just after the doors opened. He talked to well over 1500 people in the two days he attended the Hardware Show.
