Barsys the cocktail robot
Barsys 2.0. © Barsys LLC.
Barsys, the robotic mixologist, is the perfect party host. It can hold 5 bottles of alcohol and has 3 insulated tanks for mixers (soda, carbonated water or fruit juice). You can control it with a phone or a tablet, via Bluetooth. The application (iOS and Android) offers cocktails based on the alcohols and mixers available in the machine. It has a library of more than 2,000 recipes that are customizable to your preferences and you can add your own recipes. Once you’ve selected your drink, Barsys waits for you to place your glass to start pouring. A small platform moves the glass under the spouts and gives you the green light once the cocktail is mixed. Barsys 2.0 will be available July 22 for USD1,500. The company hopes that the machine will also appeal to bars and restaurants.
