Theme park to open 'robot kingdom' where 200 androids make cocktails and food

A theme park in Japan is set to introduce 200 robots as members of staff - a move that bosses claim is just the beginning of a technological revolution in the country's service industry. Amusement park Huis Ten Bosch will open the "robot kingdom" area of the attraction in July. Hideo Sawada, president of the park's operator, said: "Robots will arrive in this kingdom one after another, and the time will come when these technologies will be in use worldwide." The robots will include a chef that can cook different meals on demand. Also among the incoming robot staff is a bartender that can make 10 different cocktails.
