ORGANISERS of the Beijing 2022 winter Olympics have installed robots to carry out food and beverage duties.
According to South China Morning Post, journalists covering the Games will be served cocktails by a robo-bartender at the media centre.
This special kind of barkeep can mix and serve both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks in around 90 seconds after guests scan a code on their phone to place their order.
The robot sits behind a circular bar and below dozens of bottles suspended from the ceiling.
But the mechanical mixologist will also be staffed by a number of human bartenders to supervise.
Machines will also be running the restaurants catering to athletes and Beijing 2022 employees.
The menu includes various different types of meals, such as burgers and rice, during the Olympics which start on February 4 and end on February 20.
The robot will be using tracks running along the ceiling and orders are lifted straight from the automated kitchen before being lowered directly to tables.

That is why international visitors have been barred from attending the Games as spectators.
The International Olympic Committee have stated that athletes and staff need to present a negative test before boarding a flight bound for the Olympics, another upon arrival at the airport and a third time before entering their closed loop.
