Over 4,000 media personnel covering the China International Import Expo are getting their caffeine fix thanks to these robotic arms.
The robot, designed to serve a latte, is produced by Cheetah Mobile Inc, a Chinese tech company. It provides free coffee at the CIIE media center in Shanghai.
The orders are placed via an app, and a vision algorithm helps the "barista" locate the cups.
The robot can also chop veggies, crack eggs and grate cheese.
