Comment on White Castle wants to install robot cooks in 100 new locations

Comments

I wonder when the costs of scale will start to come in? This is interesting because it retrofits an existing kitchen, but it can't be much cheaper than just having something that was built from the ground-up to be an automated grill?

Those arms are also usually in cages or somewhat enclosed for safety reasons, are employees just expected to walk around it?

More photos on their product page, the arms are behind plexiglass. OTOH, they show an employee standing next to it while it handles baskets of hot oil. I would hope it had better safety lock-outs than that...

Hmm, I'm not sure if I'd trust a robot more or some new kid in that situation.
