FPT University students create smartphone-controlled baristaVietNamNet Bridge - Impressed by the effectiveness of Barista, a drink dispenser created by a group of FPT University students, Do Cong Hung, a lecturer in software technology, said he wanted to buy the smart ‘bartender’ at the thesis defending ceremony. The Barista was inspired by the students’ hobby of enjoying good drinks. A cocktail prepared by a professional bartender is expensive for students but it is cheaper and more interesting to prepare cocktails themselves. Users can regulate the hardware via an app run on an Android operating system. It can mix all kinds of materials to create drinks, but it cannot create ‘works of arts’ with colored layers as bartenders can.
