Created by British technology company, Moley Robotics, the system features a dexterous robot integrated into a luxury kitchen, that prepares freshly-cooked meals at the touch of a button.
The Moley kitchen is the product of six years research and development by an international team of 100 engineers, product and luxury interior designers and three award-winning chefs.
At the heart of the new technology are two robotic arms featuring fully-articulated hands , developed in collaboration with world-leading German robotic company SCHUNK, Moley s exclusive hand partner. The product of 11 exhaustive development cycles they reliably reproduce the movements of human hands. This means the robot kitchen can retrieve ingredients from the smart fridge, adjust hob temperature, use the sink to fill pans and pour, mix and plate up just as a human cook would. The robot even cleans up after itself - without complaint!
Just think about coming home after a long day of work to a warm, cooked meal and all the dishes are then washed too.
Now imagine that all the preparation, cooking and clearing up was carried out by a fully robotic kitchen that has up to 5,000 recipes to choose from.
What used to be a wild dream before is now a reality and it’s partly down to a Maltese chef.
Nicole Pisani is one of 10 chefs designing meals for Moley Robotics, the world’s first robotic kitchen that cooks and cleans and doesn’t complain about it afterwards.
The Moley Kitchen uses motion-capture technology to interact with kitchen appliances and equipment with its cabinets, robotic arms and hands.

One of the companies in attendance is UK-based Moley Robotics, which has been working on a robotic kitchen since 2015 when it unveiled a first working prototype. Several years and iterations later, the first commercial version of this robotic kitchen, also called Moley, is ready to go out to customers. And it’s everything a busy or even a very lazy cook could ever dream of.
As the press release sent out on the occasion notes, this isn’t just your run-of-the-mill robot. It’s not something that cooks your food like a machine, but rather

It took 100 engineers and three chefs six years to develop, and at this year s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which takes place virtually this week, Moley Robotics has unveiled a fully-automated luxury home kitchen that s capable of cooking more than 5,000 different dishes from scratch.
Available in two formats one dubbed the Internet of Things (IoT) enabled kitchen, the other without an integrated robot and available in a wide variety of styles and finishes, including marbles, onyx, and Corian counters, as well as variety of kitchen cabinet finishes, the Moley Kitchen is piloted by a combination of sensors and cameras and can map ingredients, cookware, and utensils in the kitchen environment. The kitchen does it all: with its fully-articulated robot hands, the Moley Kitchen can fetch food and ingredients from the smart refrigerator, operate the cooker and sink, handle pots and pants, mix, blend, and plate dishes.
