It’s scheduled to open on July 17th this year, and is located in the Huis Ten Bosch amusement park in Nagasaki, Japan.

Asiantravel Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) robots are also already proving to be far more cost effective as shop assistants https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Sp9176vm7Co Edited February 9, 2015 by Asiantravel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A1Str8 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 They should have these robots in Thailand. The rip off feature would be built in, and overcharging foreigners would be the first thing to program into the robot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
