Computerized bar aims to pour drinks by punch card
Aerospace engineer Robert W. Kross unveiled a computerized bar at a San Francisco gift show. It can mix up to 50 cocktails in five to seven seconds each and dispense 150 drinks before reloading. A bug was found when a Dallas woman fed cards upside down, causing 14 to 2 martinis instead of 7 to 1. Kross adjusted the cards to prevent reversal.
