Recently, Anno AI‘s latte art coffee printing kiosk officially launched at Istanbul Technical University (ITU), Turkey‘s premier institution of higher learning. This pioneering initiative brings a new coffee experience blending “smart technology with intangible cultural heritage flavors” to this globally renowned hub of engineering and architecture innovation, marking Anno‘s smart retail solutions‘ deep integration into Central and Eastern European academic settings.

With nearly 250 years of history, Istanbul Technical University excels in research fields like AI and 5G. The newly introduced Anuo AI Robot Latte Art Printing Kiosk precisely meets the high-quality demands of faculty and students while enhancing academic exchange settings. Equipped with a six-axis high-precision robotic arm (repeatability accuracy: 0.03 mm) and AI visual printing technology, the device completes the entire process—from grinding and brewing to latte art/printing—in just 90 seconds. It not only recreates the rich flavor of Turkish coffee‘s intangible cultural heritage craftsmanship but also supports custom pattern printing and sweetness adjustment, perfectly aligning with the local social tradition of “a cup of coffee, forty years of friendship.” Its 24/7 unattended operation and online ordering functionality precisely align with the fragmented research and study rhythms of faculty and students, while a fully enclosed dust-proof design ensures food hygiene and safety.

This deployment marks a significant move in Anno Robotics‘ expansion into the Central and Eastern European market. Leveraging over 80 core patents and operational experience across more than 70 countries worldwide, it blends the efficiency and convenience of Chinese smart manufacturing with the cultural heritage of Turkish coffee. As a new smart retail format introduced to universities, this coffee kiosk not only injects technological vitality into campus life but also serves as a new vehicle for cross-cultural exchange. It allows faculty and students to experience the innovative collision of traditional flavors and smart technology beyond academic discussions, laying a solid foundation for Anno Robotics to deepen its educational scenario deployment in Central and Eastern Europe.
