Disruptive Technologies + Cashless Consumption + Guilty Pleasure = Robo Barmaid ?
We’ve said it more than few times… the only thing we love more than one thematic tailwind is the intersection of two or more. In the case of the Robo Barmaid, a pay-and-go beer dispenser, we’ve got three — Disruptive Technologies (robotics), Cashless Consumption (contactless payment cards) and Guilty Pleasure (the beer of course!). We firmly belive this requires on-site Tematica testing to verify the ease of use as well as the notion that it cuts down waiting time by up to 12 minutes. All that waiting around time to catch the barkeep’s attention is less than fun. We’d be remiss if we didn’t observe that this is another example of robot creating the need for fewer workers. Now to see how widely deployed the Robo Barmaid becomes.

The world’s first self pouring pump to use contactless cards allows drinkers to order up a pint from a touch screen, tap their card at the pay point and walk away with a beer all within 60 seconds.The innovate “Pay@Pump” designed by credit card giant Barclaycard cuts waiting time to be served from an average 12 minutes at busy times by two thirds.
