Belly up to the bar to be served by an actual robot. At this annual festival of cocktail robotics and mechanical socializing, you can chat up a snarky electronic bartender and bask in the atmosphere of graceful tunes played by robotic musicians. As the artificial bartenders ply their wares, human bartenders will also be making drinks for comparison. It's all in the name of science, and there's no need to pick sides. These robots and humans are struggling together in the fight against boredom and it's up to you to do your part by hanging with these alternate life forms and sampling a martini or six at Barbot 2013!
