Flippy is now cooking burgers in Pasadena, California. The Caliburger chain unveiled its kitchen assistant this month which flips burger patties and removes them from the grill when cooked to order.
Miso Robotics, a leading robotics and artificial intelligence solutions company, aimed to augment commercial kitchen operations with advanced technology and developed Miso AI, a cloud-connected learning platform that powers industrial robotic arms.
The company says Miso AI combines 3D, thermal and regular vision to automatically detect when raw burger patties are placed on the grill and monitors each one in real-time throughout the cooking process. As the patties cook, Miso AI displays the cooking time on a screen that also alerts kitchen staff when to place cheese on top or when to dress a burger. It also enables Flippy to switch from using a spatula for raw meat and one for cooked meat. In addition, Flippy has the ability to clean spatulas while cooking and to wipe the surface of the grill with a scraper.
According to John Miller, chairman of Cali Group, “The deployment of Flippy in CaliBurger restaurants represents a major milestone in helping our staff produce mouthwatering burgers more consistently and in a timely manner. The ease of integration into our existing kitchen lines will also allow us to quickly install Flippy in more locations nationwide.”
