Looks like Cafe X (https://cafexapp.com/ https://cafexapp.com/)
Seems like a gimmick to me. But who knows, maybe their sales are great? Also the real question isn't the upfront (or potentially distributed) engineering cost - it's real estate. Can the robot justify the larger footprint of a typical coffee vending machine by increased sales? My guess is they're targeting the place between vending machines and Starbucks, which seems like a pretty big void in the coffee market. I still don't understand why a robot arm would do anything other than add to the novelty.
