Virginia’s Georgia Mason University’s (GMU) fleet of 25 Igloo cooler-sized, robots that deliver food to students, campus-wide, are giving a new meaning to the term à la carte. The robots arrival drew curious glances & smiles from students—along with some robot head-patting—but little else.

During their first day in use, one Pizza shop alone received about 50 orders. The demand for robot delivery was so great the school had to pull the plug, shutting off orders so that robots weren't operating late into the night.

GMU’s robots are the spear-head of a plan to keep student dining on campus. The robots are expected to provide data showing what time students eat, where the food comes from and how meal plans are being used, potentially changing how the university serves students.
