介绍:
Pakistan's first robot waitresses are serving up smiles for customers at an upscale pizza restaurant in the ancient city of Multan. Rabia, Annie and Jennie greet customers and bring them their pies at Pizza.com, where owner Osama Jafari - who built the prototypes himself - says the response has been a surge of new business. A 12-year old customer Osama Ahmed said, "When the robot served us pizza we felt very happy." Another customer, Hamid Bashir said "It is an innovation," "It is a good entertainment for the children." Jafari said he was inspired by videos of robot waiters in China. The 24-year-old, who studied engineering at Islamabad's National University of Science and Technology, said he began working on a prototype with the support of his parents. Jafari said he sourced and fabricated all parts for the robots locally, building them for 600,000 rupees ($6,000). He is already working on the next generation, which he says will be more interactive, able to respond to customer's questions, and hopes to spread his robot staff to his family's other restaurant in the southern Pakistani city of Hyderabad. Talking points: 1. Robot waiters and waitresses. Do you fancy the idea? 完整节目可通过下载CHINA PLUS客户端收听!
