Finally, a Useful Robot

South Korea is scheduled to deliver their Robot Ethics Charter to address guidelines for the appropriate treatment of robots in the future. One robot that will not likely be abused was recently unveiled by software engineer John Cornwall. With the use of a remote control, armchair athletes can have Cornwall’s refrigerator robot fling a can of beer to them up to twenty feet. The danger of foamy beer is mitigated "if the recipient uses "soft hands" to cradle the can when caught," says Cornwall. As if this creation were not enough, man can also indulge in alcohol from one of "nature’s" finest liquid delivery systems via the WineRack.
