Last Word: Robo-Bartender
Tuesday, May 30, 2006SUSIE GHARIB: And finally tonight, two engineering students at West Virginia University say they have a better idea when it comes to bars. They have invented what they`re calling "electro-bar." It`s a computer-controlled bartender that can mix a cocktail at the touch of a button. The idea is to control costs and inventory in bars and lounges, places where it`s usually tough to do both. In an entrepreneuring contest, the "electro-bar" won the students $10,000 in startup capital to patent their invention and its software. So I guess Paul, this is one bartender that doesn`t offer advice or expect a tip.
KANGAS: Or pour a little extra for really good customers.
