Video: Robots cook delicious ramen noodles for expendable humans


So you think youve seen robot chefs before, huh? Well, actually, yes you probably have -- but you sure as hell havent seen a mechanical cook spinning plates, right? We thought so. The latest culinary drone, hailing from Nagoya, Japan, features a pair of delightfully dextrous arms and is capable of serving up a yummy bowl of ramen noodles in under two minutes. With such rapid speed, the bots get some downtime, which they fill by performing a little show for their clientele. Trust us, you really dont wanna be the one person who didnt see the surreal duel that lies beyond the break.
