During my recent trip to Thailand, I was exploring the large Seacon Square mall, south of Bangkok. To my surprise, I found a robot ice cream machine and just had to check it out. Here's my review for you guys so you can see the future of frozen treats in the Land of Smiles!
At first, I wasn't quite sure what to make of it. There was a self-service terminal where you could select and pay for the ice cream you wanted, and then the robot would make it for you behind a pane of persplex. I watched in awe as the robot worked, impressed by its efficiency and precision. I had never seen anything like it before, and it was definitely an unexpected and delightful surprise.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that this machine was not 100% robotic. A human worker was still needed to put the cone into the robot's arm, and then the arm would put it under the machine that dispensed the ice cream. The human worker also had to add the topping, which seemed a bit inconvenient. Despite this, the robotic arm was still an impressive piece of technology, and it was clear that it had streamlined the ice cream-making process.
Thanks for reading and hopefully you get chance to check this amazing machine out before it's gone for good!
