The device will attach to the current machines and ensure the automated cleaning cycle is scheduled properly. It can also correct issues caused by human error, like over or under-filling the machine, according to the outlet.

Since the device launch in 2019, several McDonald’s locations have reportedly implemented it, though McDonald’s corporate office could not confirm its use to Fox News.
