PR2 Beer Fetching Robot

We’ve seen the PR2 robot perform some menial tasks before, but now the robot is capable of doing something rather useful, which is heading over to the fridge to fetch a beer for you. A four-holed foam block was placed behind the robot’s navigation laser, allowing it to safely carry four bottles across the room, and the fridge was tweaked to include a tilted self-stocking shelf. Check out a video of it in action after the jump.
