...His Brain IBM

Robotic butler:

Domo can make a stiff drink, put away groceries, shake hands, and, if properly prompted, give a person a hug. Not that remarkable, except for one thing: Domo is a real, live humanoid robot.

A creation of MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Domo won't be going on sale at Amazon.com anytime soon. His inventor, Aaron Edsinger, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology post-doctoral associate, thinks it could take years before it makes economic sense to mass-produce full-fledged humanoid robots - like Rosie, the robotic maid featured in the "The Jetsons."

He's already wondering if there might be a market for a robotic barista.

"One thing I'd like to do is make the next generation of Domo and have him serve coffee at Starbucks," Edsinger said. "You'd go buy coffee from the robot if he was making it for you."

Wait... You mean those are people working at Starbucks?!
