Beer-Fetching Robot

In what is surely another step towards robots becoming self-aware and killing us all, Robotics firm Willow Garage has developed a robot that will fetch your favorite beer. But that’s not all—the robot also has beer brand and face recognition abilities.

Unlike your local bartender, the robot wench will remember your face and brand for subsequent fetches. It will then not let the beer go until it recognizes your face as the one who ordered the Natty Light.

The beer-fetching robot has also been programmed to laugh at males who order a Michelob Ultra or MGD 64.*
