No longer will they say, “He’s going to end up flipping burgers.” Because now, robots are taking even these ignobly esteemed jobs. Alpha machine from Momentum Machines cooks
up a tasty burger with all the fixins. And it does it with such quality
and efficiency it’ll produce “gourmet quality burgers at fast food
prices.”
With a conveyor belt-type system the burgers are freshly ground,
shaped and grilled to the customer’s liking. And only when the burger’s
finished cooking does Alpha slice the tomatoes and pickles and place
them on the burger as fresh as can be. Finally, the machine wraps the
burger up for serving.
And while you fret over how many people you invited to the barbecue, Alpha churns out a painless 360 hamburgers per hour.
San Francisco-based Momentum Machines claim that using Alpha will
save a restaurant enough money that it pays for itself in a year, and it
enables the restaurant to spend about twice as much on ingredients as
they normally would – so they can buy the gourmet stuff. Saving money
with Alpha is pretty easy to imagine. You don’t even need cashiers or
servers. Customers could just punch in their order, pay, and wait at a
dispensing window.
