At the Taizicheng Railway Station in Zhangjiakou, a competition zone of the Beijing Winter Olympics, a fully automatic “barista” has attracted much attention.

After a customer gives the instruction, the machine will complete the whole coffee-making process of grinding, brewing and cleaning in five minutes.

It uses dual six-axis robotic arms and professional coffee brewing equipment. It is also supported by visual recognition technology.

The coffee machine, open to all travellers, are attracting many coffee lovers to try it out.
