Restaurant robots ‘can soon replace key jobs’, says report

November 3, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Capterra research finds that three-quarters of restaurants are now using automation

As labor shortages and rising costs continue to cut into profit margins, restaurants are looking for ways to improve their business model – and automation is increasingly looking like a viable solution.

From conversational AI drive-thrus to full-service fry cook robots, the possibilities are endless, but not all roles can be replaced.

Capterra’s 2022 Restaurant Automation Survey found that more than half of restaurant leaders say front-of-house restaurant workers can easily be automated with today’s technology, but some disciplines remain currently beyond automation.

GSR rescues its deep-sea manganese mining robot

May 3, 2021 by Sam Francis Leave a Comment

GSR, the deep-sea exploratory division of the DEME Group, has successfully recovered its prototype deep-seabed mining robot – which had become uncoupled from a cable connecting it to a surface vessel – from the floor of the Pacific Ocean.

Patania II – GSR’s purpose-built prototype nodule collector – is currently being trialled in 4,500 metre water depth in the Clarion Clipperton Zone (CCZ) of the Pacific Ocean.

On its final dive in the GSR area on 25 April, a lifting point separated and Patania II was uncoupled from the 5 km cable that connects it to the surface vessel. [Read more…] about GSR rescues its deep-sea manganese mining robot
