How Miso Robotics built an AI-activated robot fry cook
summary
Flippy is a rail-mounted robot fry cook that has cooked over 50,000 baskets at a White Castle install, built with ROS, eight cameras and on-site edge compute, supported by cloud-based AWS RoboMaker simulation that tests each retrofit layout before deployment. Flippy is offered as a managed product and sells Flippy as a service, replacing fry-station labor with payback in months; hardware includes auto-bins, food-safe arm sleeves, 24/7 monitoring, and tests against NSF/UL-style safety standards, and a Chipotle chip-making variant is simulated and slated for market within a year.
