[00:05.54]prepared by your very own kitchen robot?
[00:08.96]It might sound like science fiction,
[00:11.86]but professors at the University of Tokyo have taken the first steps
[00:16.58]toward making that into a reality.

[00:23.54]that can pour tea and other drinks into cups and serve them to guests.
