Meet your new bartender: a robot
If you’re sick of bartenders tuning up late for work, if at all, or if you are tired of the constant churn of staff in your bar, then Vietnam’s first robotics company has the answer for you. Clearly sensing your pain, TOsy, the Vietnamese company has come out with “Topio Dio”: the world’s first robotic bartender!
Developed as a service robot, or as so-called “Skillful Bartender and Waiter”, Topio Dio is 125 cm tall and weighs 45 kg. It is equipped with 28 joints, 3 wheels, built-in camera and sensor and is controlled via Wi-Fi. Although the price is not disclosed, apparently it is only 25% of the cost of similar products in the market.
I’m not sure what similar products they’re referring to…? A fully trained bartender?
It’s not yet clear if the robot will bring his friends to the bar when he’s on duty and serve them free drinks…..we’re still waiting for the robotics company to return our call.
