This are the kind of invention we should be talking about.so amazed to see a cute robot selling ice cream, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahiZpXnuKnY

Meet Yaskawa-kun. Yaskawa-kun is Japan’s newest robot, and he has two special skills: he looks cute and he can make and sell ice cream. Currently, he is working at Tokyo Summerland, a big theme park, where he will replace human workers until August 22.

The way you order is pretty simple: step up to the ice cream stand and select what you want via a touch screen (it’s possible to choose the size, sauce, topping and other things). Confirm with another push of a button, pay and watch Yaskawa-kun make the ice cream and hand it over to you.

Yaskawa-kun is the brain child of Japanese robot maker Yaskawa, a major Japanese bank and a leading advertising agency. The three companies want to continue conducting experiments with the robot and hope to lease or sell future versions (Tokyo Summerland is currently leasing the robot). http://techcrunch.com/2010/08/16/video-cute-robot-selling-ice-cream/
