Three robots walked into the show tonight - all of them fun.

 

One is in a university cafeteria doing something 2.5 million times that humans have never quite managed to do consistently. One is in a litter box, quietly learning things. And one was built in someone's garage from plans posted online, for a reason that sounds absurd until Kris Abel explains exactly who it was built for.

 

That last one is the one you'll still be thinking about.

 

Topics: robot burger grill, Litter Robot 5 Canada, weird tech Canada, Gastronomist Tech Burlington, horse simulation controller
