A robot cooks and assembles burgers in 5 minutes at this new San Francisco restaurant

Creator, a culinary robotics company, designed an autonomous robot that cooks and builds burgers to order. The machine consists of 20 computers, 350 sensors and 50 actuators that form a robotic assembly line. After you place your order, the machine grinds and cooks the meat. The burger is pushed along a unique conveyor belt, where it gets additional toppings that are all sliced to order. It even cuts and toasts the buns.
