A robotics company and a chef have joined forces to create a cyborg cook. Would it have a place in your kitchen?
You would think that cooking a good meal would involve having a sense of taste, wouldn’t you? Apparently not, according to the Short Circuit-esque scenes at a technology trade fair in Hannover, Germany, last week, where the curious pairing of London robotics company Moley Robotics and 2011 MasterChef winner Tim Anderson announced the existence of the world’s first robo-chef.
Or, more accurately, the world’s first robo-arms. The digi-gourmand is no more than a pair of gleaming, LED-pocked appendages dangling over a cooker, designed for use in the home kitchen. A mechanical home help? It’s like The Jetsons come to life. Finally, our most hyper-advanced futuro-science has mastered the technology of a five-decades-old cartoon.
