Your robot chef is ready to cook

If you want help frying the tofu, Samsung has a solution for you. Maybe. In the future.

Samsung's Bot Chef, displayed at CES 2020, features two robotic arms ("Your extra set of hands!") that descend from a panel above your stove. The arms delicately handle ingredients for your preferred dinner, including grabbing spice bottles and doing the cooking.

In the Samsung demo, the user puts a square of tofu on the starting pad. The robot arms then make precise cuts in the block, transfer the pieces to a pan, and begin cooking.

Many major appliance makers displayed bot chefs at the technology expo, mostly aimed at restaurants.
