Robot sells ice cream in Japan

日推出冰激凌售賣機器人

As if ice cream doesn't practically sell itself in the summer anyway, a Japanese theme park decided to hire a cute robot to hawk the delicious treat. Yaskawa-kun, which has just taken up a job dishing out ice cream at Tokyo Summerland, will replace the human workers until August 22. Users can use the touchscreen to select the flavor they want, pay, and watch Yaskawa-kun prepare the ice cream and pass it over the counter. (See photo)

大夏天的，似乎還嫌冰激凌賣得不夠火，日本一家主題公園決定雇傭一個可愛的機器人來兜售美味的冰激凌。這位名叫"安川君"的機器人冰點師剛剛在東京夏日樂園走馬上任，8月22日之前，將由它來替代人類工作人員"站柜臺"。你只要通過觸摸屏選好喜歡的口味，然后付賬，就能看到安川君親手為你制作冰激凌，從柜臺上奉上給你啦！(見圖)
