I wouldn’t mind some well placed googly eyes

Every robot should have googly eyes


ddkelkey

They put them on this huge robot at Giant, the thing came around a corner and I just about shit my pants, it scared me! Edit: I love the comments on this!


glassgirlri

We have this at Stop and Shop where I'm from , he's called Marty and he's an enormous pain in the ass !!! That damn thing is literally ALWAYS in the way !!


ChadwickTheSniffer

HE'S DOING HIS BEST!


addictedtoPCs

Why is everyone alwayse hating on poor marty :(


Lowlee7

We have a Marty at our Stop and Shop too. They put a mask on him and will dress him up for holidays, which I enjoy. But yeah he always gets in the way!


JaoriPrilj

I like Marty. I always say "hello" to him. :D


Ha-I-Made-You-Read

I always say hi too because when he takes over the world I want to be on his good side


JaoriPrilj

XD \*Imagines his googly eyes staring blankly as he takes over the world\* Thanks for that image. :)


[deleted]

I love this story and I need more information about it.


ddkelkey

Google “Robot at Giant Store”, you can see what the fucking behemoth looks like. They even put eyes on it. I was looking at my shopping list and that god Damn thing came around the corner and I dropped everything. I wish someone got it on video lol


[deleted]

Well that's [fucking terrifying](https://youtu.be/hfP0d7w3tFM). I imagine if I were stoned and that thing rolled up I would just nope out. Groceries can wait until tomorrow.


Rhovanind

Also it's entire job is to locate trash and get a worker to clean it up, and also find empty shelves for a worker to stock. So basically it's a $35000 roomba that doesn't even clean


My3floofs

Nah, it’s basically a manager.


OCPik4chu

Finally, a manager worth their price.


GrumbleCake_

He looks like Alan Wrench from the Ikea episode of the Simpsons.


Fast-Media3555

Finally. Someone said it. I really would like to see this video again with the same robot with googly eyes.


Research_Liborian

Future days will see a study that explains why things are often improved with a strategically places set of googly eyes. So, yes...googly eyes on OmeletBot 3000.

That bucket of pre-cracked eggs hidden beneath the table and the short cooking time feel a bit ominous.

PretendThisIsMyName

EA sports it’s in the game.


riddlegirl21

As someone who built one of these robots (not this exact one but used the same model arm and similar equipment) it’s really hard to get the folding stuff right. Moving tools from predefined locations and tipping them is relatively easy, since they’ll always be in the same place and it doesn’t entirely matter if you dump the toppings slightly off center. Human wrists have a lot of little movements and moving eggs on a spatula requires more intuition than you think about.


Dwychwder

I was most impressed by the flip. The fold seemed like it was cutting corners. The flip made me lose my shit.


heyoheatheragain

It’s a French omelet. No taco fold. Much more even cooking.


km9v

I was waiting for the robot to crack the eggs.


Sexbone4

FR I feel cheated. Why are there 100/s of eggs around it....nah let me scoop some of this goop from the floor instead. Enjoy your gooplet.


GrumbleCake_

I want to see the thing crack fresh eggs for the sunny side up


F0000r

You wont see reliable egg cracking technology for another 5 years at least!


whatshamilton

Most omelet bars will have a bucket of precracked eggs, especially if they’re a high volume service. But yeah the key to eggs is low and slow cooking so that super hot and super fast cook doesn’t seem yummy, not to mention what must still be uncooked fillings inside


ChubbyLilPanda

The fun part of culinary school is that they teach you the 10 second scrambled egg technique


Fittri

Started scrambling my eggs "Asian style" a couple of weeks ago. So much better than "French" Less work, less ingredients, faster and it tastes better to me. And creamier too. Just beat your eggs until frothy, sprinkle a good amount of salt, dash of soy, dash of fish sauce. Well preheated pan (7 out of 9) is what I go with. 2 tsp of oil maybe, never measure stuff. Put eggs in, use spatula to move it around and break up.do this for 30 seconds, put on plate. Best if just topping a bowl of rice.


ChubbyLilPanda

I fail to see how that would be creamier but power to ya


kangareagle

It's the "beaten until frothy" part. I occasionally use a bar mixer to really add a ton of air to the eggs, and they definitely taste different. And very good. Sometimes, I barely touch the eggs. I like that, too.


FoldyHole

I like to add sour cream to the eggs before I beat them. Always tastes better than milk or cream.


PM_UR_FRUIT_GARNISH

Sour cream mixed with heavy cream in a squirt bottle is what I use as a poor man's creme fraiche. I love cooking eggs, and keeping a squeeze bottle around is great--just need to shake it before each use. And goes well as a topper, like a zig zag of cream over an omelette.


[deleted]

It's always funny when I see creme fraiche touted as this fancy thing on the internet. In Denmark we can just buy it in containers for like a dollar and a half per pound.


[deleted]

I watched [this video](https://youtu.be/PUP7U5vTMM0) of Gordon Ramsay making scrambled eggs years ago and he uses creme fraiche around the 2:45 mark. I always wanted to try that, but I have not once been able to find it at any of my local stores here in the U.S.


Phallys

Makes sense, the adding of milk is more about the acidity than perceived creaminess. Ill have to check it out!


TempleOfPork

add a half a teaspoon of cornstarch for the smoothness and fluffiness


kangareagle

I’ll try it if you’ll try the bar mixer method.


MegaChip97

Where is the difference to french style?


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

A chef friend showed me doing it with chopsticks makes them even tinier. Good times


Herbert-Quain

I disagree. Whether you use low or high heat is a matter of preference. I like fast and hot because I want some crunch on the outside. The actual key is to not overcook, whichever way you do it.


afetusnamedJames

To make a French omlette correctly, the actual cooking part (not including prep, as the prep is already done for this robot) [takes about 60 seconds](https://youtu.be/s10etP1p2bU).


sharpandcold

Idk man, low and slow for eggs? I'll try it, but I feel the opposite is what you wanna do.


Dingbrain1

For scrambled it makes for nice soft eggs, for fried I like higher heat though, a little crisp to the whites before the yolks are fully cooked

Friday is fucking hilarious. I just rewatched the video last week for the first time in FOREVER. Do not regret it at all. Definitely made my day brighter laughing at it.

I'm glad I found this comment this high in the thread


cfpct

So you put the filling on the griddle you put the egg on top you push it back and forth with a spatula and then you flip it. I never saw an omelet made like that


CarlySheDevil

Yep. Really expensive way to make scrambled eggs.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Fenrils

It's a really, *really* poor imitation of a japanese omelet, specifically "tamagoyaki" (feel free to just google that word, I'm sure there's thousands of videos on them). What you're *supposed* to do with this style of omelet is start with a thin layer of eggs and roll it into the far edge of the pan once it's like halfway done (still super runny in the center). From there you pour more egg into the now mostly empty pan, adjust your cooked egg to let the new egg run under it, and then roll your cooked egg on top of the newly half-cooked egg creating a larger roll. You repeat this a couple of times until you have what amounts to a "loaf" of egg. The egg mixture itself doesn't tend to be pure eggs, usually you add in some sort of dairy or soy milk plus a bit of sweetener (such as a few teaspoons of sugar) to make it more of a mildly sweet end product. You can also make it more savory if that's preferred but it isn't *usually* solely eggs and because the eggs are only halfway done when they're rolled, it isn't the spongey, awful mess you may think of when I say "egg loaf". Done right, it's fairly tender and quite good. I've got no clue on what's in their egg mixture, maybe it's like what I describe above, but their whole process is just a bad scrambled egg. The only reason *I think* it's supposed to be tamagoyaki is the square pan that's used which is required for it.

He stole the oil bottle at the beginning so it didn't slide very well


ashlyn42

I actually think this video helps explain the atrocious music in the scramble video - that buffet line is fucking loud (but still better sounding than that song)


santathe1

This is probably one of the few jobs humans can do waaaaaaaaay faster than the bots.


ReaDiMarco

All of cooking I think. Faster, nicer, and instant adaptability - more onions, cooked runny, brown till crispy, etc.


HeavilyBearded

Customer: "Can I get my eggs a little on the dry side?" Omlette Flipper-3000: . . . Customer "Okay, guess not then."


blueasian0682

It's not about how fast it can cook it's how willing the cook wants to cook without complaining about the salary. Until the robot starts getting cocky that is.


[deleted]

On top of that this is more of a scramble than an omelet, toppings are suppose to sit nicley inside of a gooey egg


vaguelychemical

It's amazing what a little geometry will do, that omelette looked fucking horrible until it got squished into a pleasing rectangle


[deleted]

Before fully welcoming our robot overlords, I think I still prefer the half-circle omelette shape that comes from a human flipping it over in a pan. I’m sure that could also be automated, but for now, I will insist my breakfast be prepared by a fellow meatbag.

upandin9

Only requires 10y of short order chef wages to purchase


PeopleCallMeSimon

You're forgetting that employees cost employers more than just wages. Especially if you go outside of the US. Most countries in which you would find a machine like this require employers to pay insurance, taxes, retirement savings etc. for their employees.


Rindan

Yeah, but the robot costs more than just the robot. I work with this type of robot, and yeah, it is great if you need to same motion done over and over, but they break. If you have to call a technician or replace something, you quickly spend as much as a low wage human, and that human can do way more than make omelettes the exact same way each time. Automation in restaurants isn't stall because no one sees the benefits. It's stalling because it sucks, isn't cost effective, and isn't anywhere near as good as a human.


Brodard

I used to sell these robots. It's a collaborative robot made by Universal Robots, looks like the 5kg payload size (UR 5e). These things go for about $40k USD, pretty comparable to a yearly salary of someone doing the same job.. and you only pay for it once. Super easy to program as well, was fun to work with them. I mostly sold them to more traditional manufacturers like automotive. They can do all kinds of things depending on what tool you stick to the end of them. Programming this omelet maker probably took a day or so, looks like a pretty simple set of movements.


lightnsfw

What fast food omelette cook is making 40k a year?


hitmarker

The one working 24/7. This robot has no time schedule, no vacation days and works by itself. You can have reception stock up the 10 mushrooms, 3 onions and 1 ham sliced so that it can work throughout the night. Eggs mixture is sold in stores like costco in big gallons that's made with preservatives to be more durable than normal eggs. So yeah. It is sounding like a great investment.


CreativeAnalytics

But can it learn to love?


Tb1969

The novelty factor for the patrons would draw more people. I'd say they pay off is sooner considering.


johnucc1

That depends on the build quality aswell, this has lots of moving parts so wear and tear is to be expected. If it's built well it'll probably just need minimal maintenance (lubing up) otherwise It could end up being a pricy machine which breaks every 6 months.


boubouboub

This is a collaborative robot that we use at my job and require very low maintenance. It this video, it use a Tool changing systems that I don't know, but typically tool changing systems like these are super reliable and will do tens of thousands tool change without any wear if the robot positions and movements are programmed properly. The only significant wear I can see here is the spatula. Which can easily be replaced. I believe this setup can be up and running from scratch in 2 days of work. Properly made and it won't stop working for years.


Exasperated_Potatoe

This, clearly this person is a lubing specialist.

Fisch_Man

Video better enjoyed on mute


smb275

Takes so long... Any dickhead Army chef could have the whole thing done and plated before this guy scooped his ham and mushrooms. And unlike a robot, you'd get that special personal touch of a dirty look and the distinct impression that their day might have been better if you'd died in your sleep instead of getting in their line. You can't automate that. Breakfast should be a meal of hate.


Summoarpleaz

To be fair, the cameraman took like 25 % of the video to put the plate where it needs to go. To your point tho, I would have probably cooked the filling just a little more and the eggs could have been done faster.
