Robot serves up ice cream at Tokyo Summerland

For some reason, I can’t help but think that this image is cute. I mean, it is a robot serving ice cream.

The robot’s name is Yaskawa-kun, and it will be doing its job in Tokyo’s Summerland theme park until August 22nd.

You can watch a video of this guy on his shift after the jump, and you will note the nifty Japanese music playing in the background. It sounds like something from the opera “Carmen”, but I’m not exactly an opera buff.
