"Robot retail" is here. The company VenHub has opened two robot-operated convenience stores in California.
Operating like a cashless vending machine, customers can order items on the VenHub app.
A robot arm will retrieve the items and dispense them to the customer through a drawer.
VenHub says its stores have lower building and operating costs, which results in lower prices for customers.
