April 20, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Exclusive from Premio

Back-of-house operations advance with machine learning, computer vision, and real-time data analytics 

The pandemic was especially difficult on the restaurant industry’s bottom line, and the sector is still in the early stages of recovery. As the world begins to turn the page on Covid, a new normal has emerged, with many kitchen staff having moved on to jobs outside food service.

New, modern technology, driven by automated systems, is ready to pick up the slack with incredible speed and productivity. Automated robotic arms powered by smart AI algorithms are revolutionizing modern restaurant operations in ways that would not have been possible just a few years ago.

Specialized software algorithms that enable the automation of repetitive kitchen tasks are proving more valuable for efficiency and productivity. [Read more…] about Made to Order: AI Data Processing Via Edge Computing Brings Robotics to the Fast-food Kitchen

Thermal imaging cameras in the food industry

March 23, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

In the food industry, it’s essential to carefully control the temperature of perishable goods throughout production, transportation, storage, and sales.

Repeated warnings about illnesses due to tainted and improperly cooked foods highlight the need for tighter process control. Because this almost always involves a human factor, food processors need tools that automate crucial operations in a way that helps minimize human error while holding down costs.

Thermal imaging cameras are such a tool. Using FLIR thermal imaging cameras, you can make automated non-contact temperature measurements in many food processing applications. Analog video outputs can be viewed on video monitors, and digital temperature data, including MPEG4 video outputs, can be routed to a computer via Ethernet.
