Pizza Hut Tests Using a Humanoid Robot Cashier
Pizza Hut is testing a humanoid robot cashier named Pepper that was developed by SoftBank Robotics. The robot interacts with customers through voice commands and a large display that can show menus, pricing information, or other information. In a video released by MasterCard who is working on the payment system for Pepper, the robot takes an order, makes suggestions, and even gives nutritional information on food items.
