This Master Chef-trained robot kitchen will cook for you

The chef/kitchen has been produced in collaboration with BBC MasterChef winner Tim Anderson. The robotic arms can cook a variety of programmed recipes while you look on from outside. Chef Anderson himself programs the robot to make crab bisque - a tough enough dish for an actual human to whip up - and is pleasantly surprised by the results. It's not cheap, though. The MK1001 robot kitchen costs US $100 to reserve and US $72,000 to buy outright, though creator Moley does have a range of models available, starting from US $15,000. The kitchens are expected to be available from 2017.
