The robotisation of the catering system (primarily small businesses) is gradually becoming a reality. Nala Robotics, based in Illinois (USA), has introduced a compact autonomous robotic pizza preparation system, Pizzaiola, measuring 3.7 x 3.7 metres, consisting of a storage/cooking area, an oven and a manipulator arm that moves freely around the entire perimeter of the kitchen.
Customers of the pizzeria can place an order by selecting it at the self-service kiosk, which will transmit it electronically to the kitchen. In addition, there is an online version of the take-home order via a special robot.
