You never get bored reading about the latest inventions in technology especially. Since ever the main goal of researchers was to create an artificial form of life- a robot. Well, their quest is getting closer and closer to that point. If until now you could see robots only on TV or on the Internet, now you can meet one in everyday life. On Monday, Dutch inventors presented their latest creation: a 75,000 euro ($111,100) car-fuelling robot. Drivers will no longer feel the nostalgia for braved windswept garage forecourts that filled their tanks due to this Dutch robot, first of its kind. It is created to accomplish tasks like registering the car on arrival at the filling station and matching it to a database of fuel cap designs and fuel types. Just imagine the entire situation: a robotic arm fitted with multiple sensors extends from a regular petrol pump, opens the car's flap, picks up the fuel nozzle and directs it toward the tank opening, just like a living person, perhaps even more efficient. The idea started from a robotic arm milking a cow that determined the developer and petrol station operator Nico van Staveren to create a robot to pump up gas, for all motorists to be excerpted from getting dirty and smelly. His aim is to introduce the "Tankpitstop" robot by the end of the year in as much as possible Dutch gas station. However, it works only for any car whose tank can be opened without a key, and whose contours and dimensions have been recorded to avoid scratching. The drivers are not scared by the robot, but they hope the gas station has a very good insurance. Stay connected and see when your town will get one. Enjoy!
