Humanoid robot makes ice cream at Shanghai DQ
CyberRobooo · x · 2026-08-31
A Sharpa wheeled humanoid robot named North is deployed at a DQ store on Wujiang Road, Shanghai. The robot performs 55 steps—including opening cabinets, fitting rings, dispensing, scooping, blending, and flipping—without kitchen modifications, driven by CraftNet for tactile sensing. It takes 6-7 minutes per cup, slower than humans, but validates stability in long, messy sequences.
