Miso Robotics, known for the Flippy robot designed for fast-food burger chains, is taking a new step to enhance cooking accuracy with its latest innovation: CookRight. This AI-driven app and camera system is designed to ensure your steak or chicken is cooked to perfection. By monitoring grilling times for various food items, CookRight prompts chefs when to flip or remove them, adapting to the unique heat distribution of each grill for precise cooking times.
CookRight operates as a simpler and more affordable solution than Flippy, featuring a user interface tablet, cameras, and a compact computer, all available for around $100 per month. Its self-installation capability makes it accessible not just for large chains but also for smaller operators.
The system eliminates the guesswork involved in manual timing, which can lead to undercooked or improperly cooked food. Here's how it works: a cook places burgers, hot dogs, chicken, fish, steaks, and other items on the grill. CookRight’s AI recognizes each item with a 96% accuracy rate, automatically initiating a timer. Each food item is labeled on the display. The chef can specify the desired cooking level—rare, medium rare, etc.—and the app alerts them when to flip or remove each item.
Utilizing machine learning, CookRight continuously learns a grill’s heat distribution, allowing it to identify maintenance needs if food items are consistently overcooked or undercooked. Additionally, it aids in preventing order assembly errors with real-time quality control, ensuring all items make it into each order.
The system also provides valuable analytics to restaurant owners and managers, helping them enhance efficiency and address potential food quality issues. Miso Robotics emphasizes that CookRight can significantly reduce mistakes that may lead to foodborne illnesses while gathering unprecedented insights into kitchen operations. With its focus on efficiency and food safety, CookRight is an essential tool for restaurants, especially in today’s takeout-centric landscape.
