We haven't used a robot to serve pasta but we once used a robot to disperse cans of soda at a technology fair. We made a vertical chute on the back of the bot so every time we raised and lowered the central tower it would pop out one can of soda in a nice arc about 3 feet into the hands of the waiting spectators. All worked well until the spring in the mechanism twisted a bit and a half dozen cans shot out about 15 feet in the air and exploded all over the floor. The crowd went wild. We don't do that anymore!
We learned robots and soda don't mix- good luck with your pasta. Bring lots of towels.
