It is a reality that technology has been entering our lives with increasing force. From the Internet to the use of smartphones, where anyone can save information, surf the Internet or even work. Today there are many tools that are of great benefit to humanity thanks to technology, although there are others that, although they may be useful, are less common and less striking.
This is the case of the company Miso Robotics , which has created robots that dispense drinks in an automated way. This company already designed robots that made hamburgers spin in restaurant kitchens, known as Flippy, but this time they have gone a step further, creating a machine capable of automatically dispensing the drinks that customers ask for. The implementation of robotics in restaurants is increasingly common, especially in fast food services.
The speed, the most important
This system, being created as part of a collaboration with beverage dispensing company Lacer, gives diners an additional level of automation to their standard fast food platter. It has a directly integrated point of sale system, which makes the drink pour, seal, and advance.
But not only that, this mechanism also has a larger sales system as a guarantee that orders are being received correctly , between customers in person and delivery drivers. However, the new delivery model has made the ever-critical need for speed and efficiency an even greater challenge as workload increases and staffing decreases, taking a few more minutes to complete the order.
This innovative beverage pouring robot is much smarter than the classic beverage machine that we can find in fast food restaurants or cinemas. The company has said that it has increased its interest amid the labor shortage caused by the loss of employees during the pandemic that has hit the world for the last year and a half by COVID-19.
An advantage for customers and employees
Jake Brewer, Miso Robotics’ chief strategy officer, said in a statement that Lancer has a legacy of outstanding quality in the industry and shares the vision for beverage innovation and futuristic design that Miso Robotics also owns.
He has also stated that order fulfillment is one of the most important factors in customer satisfaction and operators cannot forget to leave a drink when a delivery driver or customer visits. “We are very excited to create a product that will not only improve the lives of those who work in commercial kitchens, but will also be a game changer for the industry as a whole and provide a world-class customer experience,” he concluded.
