In a miniature and cookie-filled version of Pacific Rim, here's a video of a robot that's been programmed to fill Oreo cookies. Technology firm Maya Design is behind the video and the concept — which debuted, unsurprisingly, at SXSW — and the technology uses "3D printing and robotic manufacturing" to custom-create combinations of cookies and flavored cream. The mini-robot is a smaller version of the firm's "Trending Vending" machine, which filled cookies to order at SXSW based on a dozen touch-screen choices. Go, watch:
