Don’t like chatting with a bartender? You’re in luck. Picky about your pour? Maybe not so much if you’re headed to the Broncos-Browns game on Saturday.
Broncos Country will find out if robots do it better when the beer-dispensing Bud Light Bot debuts at the stadium in the United East Club level during the game.
The mechanical arm, manufactured by Universal Robots and programmed by MSI TEC, will serve beer from a machine that fills plastic cups from the bottom up using a special cut and magnet. The robot is programmed to have two people push a button at the same time to start dispensing beer.
How does the bot’s pour compare to a person’s? Well, from watching video of a demonstration on Tuesday, it looked like it was about 2/3 full. But judge for yourself.
Welcome to the future: You can now have the “Bud Light Bot” serve you a beer at Mile High (East Club level on Saturday) #Broncos pic.twitter.com/W5qm8g7jag
