Thanks to the advent of technology, we have seen things in real life that were once only a dream. Recently, a travel vlogger named Ken Abroad had the opportunity to witness a wonderful marriage of food and technology during his visit to Shanghai. China. And much like him, social media users were also impressed by this invention. During his stay at a hotel, Abroad dropped an interesting video on Instagram recording his reaction to his food being delivered by a robot.

The video opened with the vlogger saying, “I’m getting food delivered by a robot in China.” Flipping the camera, it showed a phone ringing in his room, indicating that his food had arrived at the door. Once he opened the door to his hotel room, Ken Abroad was greeted by a white mini robot. Unable to decipher what the object was speaking in Chinese, he searched for any additional information to receive the lunch. He soon found a digital screen that displayed the word “Open” on the robot’s dome-shaped head.
Once Ken Abroad tapped the dome, a compartment opened in the center, revealing his well-packaged food. After removing the food containers from the refrigerator-like opening, the vlogger pressed the button again and the compartment closed automatically. A timer flashing on the screen showed the time frame in which the eat it was going up. After completing its duty, the robot attached to the wheel moved down the corridor. “That feels pretty futuristic!” he wrote abroad in the caption.
The Internet community has expressed its excitement at the robotic food delivery technique in China. One person wanted to know: “Would you say China or Japan is more futuristic?”
Another wondered if the food was even cooked by a robot.
A third person guessed that the robot was trying to say, “Please give me a good review.”
One user found the service “very convenient for customers.”
“This feels like what life will be like in the 2050s,” another person imagined.
Many shared the feeling that it was quite “cool”
