This robot server concept has been designed by Dawn BYSJ, Juwon Lee as a technology solution for the home to provide inhabitants with a friendly way to serve refreshments.
The robot is inspired by the Minions characters from the Despicable Me franchise, and thus features a yellow and blue color scheme with a scooter-like design. The robot is outfitted with an eye-like headlight that gives the unit an even more character-like appearance from afar.
The robot server concept is imagined as the perfect solution for the restaurant industry to provide servers with a way to delivery refreshments to guests in a contact-free way. The robot identifies how advanced solutions require a touch of friendliness to prevent them from being too foreign for humans to feel comfortable around.
