This Chinese Robot Caught Fire in A Las Vegas Restaurant

As Andrew Castro and his friends walked past a Las Vegas mall restaurant on Friday afternoon, something caught their attention. A 4-foot-tall robot in the store is bringing several entrees to a table in the restaurant. "It's a really nice robot!" said the 16-year-old high school student, "I've never seen anything like this before! When I saw the thing move on its own, I was so intrigued that I would like to come and eat here sometime. "

This is a restaurant Catcher’s Fish House (hereinafter referred to as Predator) located near the Las Vegas Convention Center. The restaurant opened in 2019, but it didn't take long for the outbreak to hit and it had to close for a while. The restaurant reopened in a new location last December with a food delivery robot.

Different from the robot with arms and legs understood by the locals, this is more like a smart delivery tool specially used for food delivery and return. During Friday's dining rush, robots traverse the store, taking on many of the grunt work of delivery. The robot has formed an effective cooperation with the store staff, who affectionately named it Mike, who they believe has brought about a turnaround for the reopened store.

In fact, Mike, beloved by shop assistants and customers alike, is from China, a Shenzhen-based robotics company Ruiman Intelligence. In China, it has become a cooperative brand of 65% of the top 100 catering companies. In recent years, the pace of its global deployment has become faster and faster, and it has frequently appeared in reports on major overseas media platforms. At present, its products have been registered in many overseas countries and regions such as the United States, Germany, Canada, Italy, South Korea, Singapore, and Japan. With the increasing awareness of robots in overseas markets, the catering industry in more and more countries has begun to try to use robots to deliver meals.

"This is technology, this is a world of technology." Predator restaurant owner Smith said that the purpose of using robots is not to replace human workers, but it is a good tool that can effectively help improve the operation of the restaurant. At the same time, the robot is also very eye-catching, especially when it talks, it is very interesting and makes customers refreshing.

With the recovery of the catering market, more and more customers have begun to return to the restaurant for consumption, and the application of robot waiters brings more efficient human-machine cooperation and a safer and less-contact dining environment, making Smith full of confidence in the future. He hopes to soon open another restaurant in Las Vegas with a new robot.
