Robotics in barrier-free industrial kitchens
The project shall enable all people – regardless of their physical or cognitive abilities – to work in the kitchen
Keywords: Robotics, Inclusion, kitchen work
The potential of robotics and artifi cial intelligence in industrial kitchens is huge, but is rarely exploited. This is set to change in the planned new “Labor Inklusion” building by
“Blindspot - Inclusion and Diversity Switzerland”
in the heart of Bern. In collaboration with ETH Zurich, a new kitchen is being designed and built for the planned restaurant that is fully in line with inclusion. The aim is to enable all people – regardless of their physical or cognitive abilities – to actively participate in the work process in the kitchen and be a part of society.
