Royal Caribbean's high-tech cruise ship called 'Quantum of the Seas' will have robot bartenders and 80-inch virtual balconies.
The 167,800-ton ship would have the Bionic Bar for people to place an order on their Windows tablet built specially for the ship and they can watch a robot bartender mix their drink, the Verge reported.
People could also play Xbox Live while they sit in a SeaPod in the SeaPlex because the ship has broadband-level internet. And in Two70, the huge showroom on the ship, there are six "Roboscreens" that would show performances during every cruise, and on Vistarama they could see huge projections of anything they want.
There's also a "multidimensional performance spectacle" called Starwater and every room has the USB charging ports.
The new ship debuts in November, sailing mostly in China, and the second Quantum-class Royal Carribbean ship would come in 2015.
