A robot Ultraman lookalike shaves noodles at a restaurant in Jilin, Jilin province on July 17. The owner said the robot cost him 20,000 yuan ($2,973) and it works twice as fast as a human and conserves energy. The lights, in place of eyes, signal the robot is working. Many people visit the robot noodle restaurant to have a bite made by the machine. China is undergoing an invasion of Ultraman robots serving noodles to customers. In November 2011, one was pictured making noodles in Shijiazhuang city, capital of North China's Hebei province. In March 2012, another one appeared at a restaurant in Xuchang, Central China's Henan province. [Photo/Asianewsphoto]
