Caliexpress in Pasadena introduces ‘Burgerbot’ and ‘Flippy’ by Miso robotics for an entirely automated culinary experience

Get ready for a culinary experience like no other as CaliExpress in Pasadena, California, gears up to become the world’s first operating restaurant fully run by robots and artificial intelligence (AI). Forget about human chefs; ‘BurgerBot’ and ‘Flippy,’ created by Miso Robotics, are set to take charge of both ordering and cooking processes, promising patrons a cutting-edge dining adventure.

Miso Robotics‘ ‘Flippy’ is a groundbreaking smart kitchen robot designed to fry a variety of items, from french fries to chicken nuggets. Working alongside human counterparts, Flippy enhances quality, consistency, and introduces significant cost savings for restaurants. In the realm of fast food, CaliExpress aims to redefine the dining experience with automation while maintaining high-quality offerings, including Wagyu beef burgers.

Customers will engage with the future of fast food through PopID stations, allowing them to create profiles with stored images, loyalty, and payment information. The ultimate convenience comes as patrons can place orders using facial recognition technology, streamlining the entire process.

The advanced technology isn’t just about efficiency; it also addresses safety concerns. By employing robots for tasks traditionally handled by fast-food workers, CaliExpress aims to protect individuals from the hazards associated with hot oil and fryers. Furthermore, the reduction in labor costs enables the restaurant to offer higher-quality products like Wagyu beef.

While Miso Robotics assures the public that their creations are friendly and helpful, with Vice President of Product Development Alana Abbitt stating, “It’s not a Terminator, it’s not Transformers. It’s a very friendly, helpful robot,” human staff will still play a role at CaliExpress. Human employees will assist in packing food and provide a welcoming face for those seeking a more personal touch.

Although CaliExpress was initially slated to open this month, a spokesperson has confirmed to Forbes that the groundbreaking restaurant is set to open its doors to the public soon, marking a significant leap into the future of dining.
