Moley Robotics is a robotics company headquartered in London, United Kingdom. It was founded by Mark Oleynik in 2015 to create service robots for kitchen use.[1][2] It is best known for creating the first robot kitchen called The Moley Robotic Kitchen.[3][4][5]
Mark Oleynik, a computer scientist, founded the Moley Robotics in 2014 as a way to have good food at home without the skills to make it.[6] In 2015, Moley Robotics partnered started working on a robotic kitchen.[7] Subsequently, the company introduced its Robotic Kitchen. It made its debut at the Hannover Messe industrial robotics trade fair in Hannover, Germany in April 2015.[8]
The Robotic Kitchen has been distinguished in several international science and engineering events. In May 2015, the Robotic Kitchen won the "Best of the Best" CES Shanghai award in China.[9] In January 2016, the prototype was finalist at the first edition of the UAE AI & Robotics Award in the international category, health sector.[10] The consumer version of the Robotic Kitchen is slated to launch in 2018.[11]
The current prototype of the Moley Robotic Kitchen includes two robotic arms with hands equipped with tactile sensors, an oven, an electric stove, a dishwasher and a touchscreen unit.[12][13] These artificial hands can pick up and interact with most kitchen equipment, such as blenders, whisks, knives and the hob.[14]
It captures, with an integrated 3D camera and wired glove, the entire work of a human chef and upload it into a database.[15] The chef's actions are translated into digital movements using gesture recognition algorithms created in collaboration with Stanford University and Carnegie Mellon University professors.[16] Later, The Robotic Kitchen reproduces the whole sequence of actions to cook an identical meal from scratch.[17][18]
In the current prototype, the user operates the installation via a built-in touchscreen or smartphone application with cooking ingredients prepared in advance and put in preset locations.[19] Moley Robotic's objective in the future is to enable the user to select from a library of over 2,000 recorded recipes.[20][21]
