As reported by the BBC, at the Olympics in China robots are taking on a significant workload cleaning, serving food and drinks and handling sundry errands. In scenes resembling a sci-fi movie, temperature checks, cooking and delivering food are all being efficiently handled. A few photos hint at a much larger automation story behind the scenes.
