Robot barista at NAIA Terminal 2

In the previous post, I mentioned something about a robot barista at NAIA Terminal 2. Unfortunately, it wasn’t functioning at the time so I wasn’t able to try it out.

Beverages available
The actual screen menu is just like the interface at fast food restaurants like McDonald’s and Jollibee. Admittedly, the coffees are on the pricey side so this is not something you’d probably buy everytime you’re at this terminal.
A look inside the machine showing a robot arm, cups and nozzles where the beverages are discharged. (The reflection makes it difficult to take a clear photo.)

Perhaps there will be more of these in the future and replacing the manned shops at airport terminals. I imagine there might be these and vending machines providing food and drink at airports and other transport terminals.
