Intelligent researchers say in the future, robots will play a prominent role in our daily routine.
Roboexotica is a festival, the brainchild of a group of Viennese techno-artists called Shifz, which started the event in 1999, reasoning that if robots were ultimately supposed to interact with humans in everyday life, then turning them into bartenders was a natural step.
They sure got a long way to go tho.

Festival organizer says “I like to mix critical art and technology.” Interesting idea, as reported in Wired.
They called barbots. There’s a Bender-lookin one too. Most are garage-made for fun & still very crude n crap. Here are some ’09 models.
I wouldn’t call them robots tho. More like duct-taped novelty gadgets.
Asahi (beer of Japan) also created a simple beerbot in ’06, and gave away 5,000 units in a competition.
Push the robot’s start button and it opens the can, tilts the glass, and pours the beer with a perfect head every time. The refrigerator section of the robot can cool six 350 ml cans and two beer mugs.
Would whoop R2D2's butt anytime
Well, it’s a start! I do enjoy mixing drinks, but someday we might all have our own bitch to chill, fetch & mix our drinks without fuss.
The only problem is, i dont trust goddam bartenders dat dont drink.
I mean, u wouldnt trust a chef dat dont eat.
