“The Internet Technology has penetrated every aspect of the tourism industry where people can use their smart phones to enjoy intelligent travel with the help of the Internet and especially mobile Internet technologies. We are now in an age of intelligent travel.” said Wu Wenda, a product manager of an Internet company of China Telecom.

Intelligent tourism, also known as smart tourism, is def i ned as "by the use of new technology such as cloud computing and Internet of Things, tourists who have personally experienced the travel information concerning resources, economy, activities, travelers, etc. can post such information via the Internet or mobile Internet using portable Internet-enabled devices to enable the timely update of information for other tourists, who can then arrange and adjust their work schedule and travel plan accordingly, thus achieving the desired effect of the intelligence and availability of varied travel information." Through the Internet, tourists can pinpoint a location and search for detailed information on tourist attractions such as where can be crowded, where the parking lot is and where they can shop, relax and have a meal. They can make the booking and payment online; use the car, ship, air ticket and entrance tickets in paperless formats; share the joys of travel with family, classmates, colleagues, friends, teammates and tour members; and know the condition of and control household appliances from afar. The most frequently used devices in intelligent travel are GPS, NFC and other sensor devices which are used for location, data transfer, ID identif i cation, e-check receipt and sending, mobile payment and even opening the smart lock of the hotel.

Also in the Transportation Museum were some emerging Internet companies that are actively exploring tourism markets and offering services of portable Wif i abroad, intelligent voice guides and others. “Using Internet technology and smart devices, we can offer a wide range of services. For example, we can develop an APP of airport services for those on their very fi rst trip abroad, which they can use to identify their location, lounge room and place for check in when they arrive at the airport abroad.”, said Wu Wenda.

Wu's company also provides the service of VR trailer making. VR experience was another highlight of CITIE, and many travel agencies introduced their VR travel experience which was extremely popular with audiences. “A VR trailer of 2 to 3 minutes like this one costs several hundreds of thousands Yuan, and the expenditure will be determined by different requirements”, said Wu, “but I think VR experience should be equipped with VR devices and would be better used for off l ine promotion. 3D technology is more suitable for the online experience of the natural and cultural sceneries of new airlines and determinations.”

VR experience, intelligent travel and other high technologies have greatly shaped the tourism industry. This year's CITIE, emphasizing industrialization, specialization, marketization and internationalization, had a great deal of highlights. The Transportation Museum and Travel + Museum, designed by China Southern Airlines Media, showcased high-grade, precision and advanced technology, which gave a comprehensive demonstration of the new trend and new industrial format of the integrated development of tourism, fi nance, real estate, transportation, technology, education, culture and other related industries.
