Lianhe Zaobao, 机器人现场烤炸美食 自动化“微型厨房”缓解人手压力

(Summarised translation)

Local company Rolo Robotics has developed a fully automated food vending system called the “Micro Kitchen,” capable of handling multiple ingredients and cooking meals on-site.

Designed with a modular setup, the system can be customised for different environments such as canteens and corporate cafeterias. It currently offers five types of food modules, including frying, baking, salad preparation, hot and cold beverages, and stir-fry cooking.

The machines are already in use at the Singapore University of Technology and Design and Nanyang Technological University, with additional units being deployed at Ng Teng Fong General Hospital. By the end of the year, about 20 machines are expected to be installed across Singapore.

Separately, a fully automated pancake robot has also been rolled out at multiple locations, offering convenient 24-hour service.
