Robots at the pump

By mikecourtman

Filling your own tank at the petrol station, is not usually a big issue, but it can be a real pain if you spill fuel over your best suit or dress on the way to a pressing engagement.

However, a group in inventors in the Netherlands has come with a design for a robotic service pump, that saves you the trouble of getting your hands dirty.

The idea for the design apparently came from seeing robots used in robotic milking systems. The Netherlands is incidently, is one of the world’s biggest users of robotic milking technology.
