"In 1864, David Goodell revolutionized kitchen food prep with the invention of
a hand-cranked device that could peel an apple in a matter of seconds. One
hundred and fifty-nine years later, Chipotle is introducing the next innovation
in automated fruit prep with Autocado: a robot that can halve, peel, and core a
mountain of avocados with minimal human assistance.
Chipotle, the US-based chain of “fast-casual” restaurants that also operates in
countries like Canada, the UK, Germany, and France, actually refers to its new
robot as a “cobotic prototype” because it’s designed to work in collaboration
with kitchen staff in order to speed up the preparation of guacamole. Although
mashing up and mixing other ingredients with avocados to make guacamole seems
like a much easier task for a ‘cobot’ to handle, Autocado instead deals with
the most time-consuming step of making guac: prepping the avocados."
