RoboChef, a restaurant which opened in December in the capital of Iran, allows diners to get a restaurant experience that's heavy on technology and light on misunderstanding. The restaurant features multi-touch smart tables that allow customers to choose their dishes down to the smallest detail. The food is then served by a robotic conveyor belt directly to each customer's table and guided by artificial intelligence.
Nanjing subway station revealed its automated guided vehicle (AGV) robotic parking garage, which significantly reduces the time and space needed to park a car. Drivers simply need to book a space using a mobile phone application, leave their vehicle at the entrance of the garage, where a lifter delivers the car underground and a robotic roller transports the car to the parking space. Parking time is between two to three minutes and the design uses up to 40 percent less space than the average lot. The recently completed system, which is currently in its final test phase, is expected to be put into operation following the Chinese New Year.
Meet Alter the Android, a robot with artificial intelligence so advanced, that his creators claim that he has free will. The new humanoid robot interacts with people and moves through an embedded Central Pattern Generator, or CPG, which allows him to express quite a wide range of different motions. The secret of the CPG is that its designed to work almost exactly like a human brain.
