As you might expect, putting a robot into the busy back of house of a fast food restaurant isn’t as easy as just setting it in front of the grill and plugging it in. That’s because restaurants are a complex mix of workflows, equipment and, yes, people, so automating a busy kitchen with robotics requires lots of planning.

For this podcast, we talk with two people building the future of restaurant robots: Shawn Lange, the head of Lab2Fab (a division of Middleby) and David Zito, the CEO of Miso Robotics (the company behind Flippy, the burger flipping robot).
