Vacuum cleaners turn robotic bartenders

Lager manufacturer Stella Artois performed a Christmas miracle by turning robot vacuum cleaners into automatic bartenders. The Stella Artois BART – which stands for Bartending Automated Robotic Technology – comes in the form of a kit that may be attached to a robot vacuum by means of heavy-duty hook-and-loop patches.

BART comprises a tray, four drinks’ holders and space for a snack bowl. It enables the unit to transport drinks and snacks around the room while simultaneously carrying out its floor-cleaning role. The drink’s holders can accommodate either beer bottles or broad-based glasses and the tray has strategically-placed ridges to prevent the drinks from sliding around.
