Our entry for Robot Lab Live 2022 was two robot dogs fitted with arms cooking fake burgers (health and safety wouldn’t let us use real food!)  

This demonstration shows how a motion capture suit – such as the ones used in animation film-making – can be used to control two robot dogs to perform the fairly dexterous task of cooking and assembling a burger. The two robots both carry a robotic arm, and all will be controlled simultaneously from a single pilot to cook fresh ingredients into a fully edible burger, all without having to step into the kitchen.
