If you have been a fan of science-fiction or want to learn how it feels like to be around robots, this restaurant in Bengaluru should be your go-to place. Bengaluru just got its first Robot Restaurant, which features Indo- Asian cuisine and robots serve food to customers.

 

The restaurant located on Indira Nagar’s high street 100 Feet Road has capacity to accommodate 50 diners at a time. With a team of six robots (1 usher and 5 bearers), the restaurant has been designed in such a manner that there is extra space between the aisles so as to provide enough space for the robots to navigate. So how do you order your food here? Every table has a digital tablet, which the customers have to operate, choose a dish from the menu, and then place the order. Once your food is ready, the kitchen assigns a robot to deliver the food.

 

Referring to this development, Founder of the restaurant, Venkatesh Rajendran, said that these Android robots have been designed to greet the visitors at the entrance, and guide them to their tables; they also come equipped with a built-in facial recognition technology. Further, the robots have been programmed in a manner that will sing birthday wishes in case there is a special occasion. Chennai is home to the country's first-ever robot restaurant, which was launched in 2017. The restaurant registered huge success which eventually prompted founder Venkatesh Rajendran to expand the business to other places. Also, to add on to the futuristic experience, guests will be served starters and soups in mini trains that will chug on mini tracks.
