VIDEO OF THE WEEK: THE PINT-PULLING ROBOT

by Hazed

The rise of the real life waitdroid… A robot that pulls pints has been created by students from the University of Leeds’ School of Mechanical Engineering. They worked with a local engineering company and a brewery to develop the bot.

Watch a video of the robot barman here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-leeds-40421566/pint-pulling-robot-put-through-its-paces-in-yorkshire

Footnote: Alan went to Leeds University and funded himself by working in the student union bar. If this robot turns out to be a success that avenue of funding may be closed to future students!
