A robot is serving coffee at Davos to show people what's in store for the future

"Hi, I would like a robot coffee!," a female participant at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos says as she arrives at the Garden Lounge in the main congress center. It's a coffee space, decorated in white and light-colored wood furnishings, where people gather between sessions at this year's event. Next to the main coffee counter there's a highly visible robot called YuMi. Benoit Gerber, a local product manager at Swiss-Swedish multinational ABB, told CNBC the robot is about four years old, and making an appearance at WEF for the first time.
