Robots that are engaged in a variety of "human" affairs (including cooking) will not surprise anyone. But the large global pizza chain Pizza Hut and the famous automaker Toyota still want to try it. And along the way, and change the approach to the delivery of food. The fact is that the companies presented a robot that cooks pizza not in the kitchen, but in a specially equipped car, which at that moment already carries the order to the customer.
The presentation took place at the SEMA Show (Specialty Equipment Market Association) in Las Vegas during the presentation of new products from Toyota. The mobile pizza factory is located in the back of a Toyota Tundra pickup (a pizza-making modification called the Tundra PIE Pro), which, according to the automaker, does not pollute the environment at all, but this is not the case now.
The “mobile kitchen” itself contains a refrigerator with pre-prepared products, a robotic supply and assembly system, and a portable conveyor oven that can cook several pizzas at once. Cooked pizza will only be put in the box.
“We are always looking for ways to be closer to our customers,” said Nicholas Burkier, Chief Operating Officer of Pizza Hut. “Our main idea is always the same: to close the gap between the moment when the pizza is cooked and the moment when the customer starts to enjoy our product.”
