"A mechanized army of circuitry and metal, cold and emotionless, carry out tasks without conscious. Robots, thousands, programmed for destruction, march towards the future. Man's greatest invention, making the impossible possible, are no longer under our control. This new breed of technology makes humanity obsolete. Robots, thinking, acting on their own, begin their march towards domination. These machines, built by man, serve no one. The robots among us, watching, waiting, calculate their new world order, their time is coming, they cannot be stopped. With perfect weapons, and superior intelligence, robots rule this planet. Let the fall of mankind give way to a new age." -Peter Cullen, Advanced Robotics, Toonami

SEOUL, South Korea — In fried-chicken-obsessed South Korea, restaurants serving the nation's favourite fast-food dish dot every street corner.

But Kang Ji-young's establishment brings something a little different to the table: a robot is cooking the chicken.

Eaten at everything from tiny family gatherings to a 10-million-viewer live-streamed "mukbang" -- eating broadcast -- by K-pop star Jungkook of BTS fame, fried chicken is deeply embedded in South Korean culture.

Paired with cold lager and known as "chimaek" -- a portmanteau of the Korean words for chicken and beer -- it is a staple of Seoul's famed baseball-watching experience.

The domestic market -- the world's third largest, after the United States and China -- is worth about seven trillion won ($5.3 billion).

However, labour shortages are starting to bite as South Korea faces a looming demographic disaster due to having the world's lowest birth rate.

Around 54 percent of business owners in the food service sector report problems finding employees, a government survey last year found, with long hours and stressful conditions the likely culprit, according to industry research.

Korean fried chicken is brined and double-fried, which gives it its signature crispy exterior, but the process -- more elaborate than what is typically used by US fast food chains -- creates additional labour and requires extended worker proximity to hot oil.

Enter Kang, a 38-year-old entrepreneur who saw an opportunity to improve the South Korean fried chicken business model and the dish itself.

"The market is huge," Kang told AFP at her Robert Chicken franchise.

Chicken and pork cutlets are the most popular delivery orders in South Korea, and the industry could clearly benefit from more automation "to effectively address labour costs and workforce shortages," she said.

Kang's robot, composed of a simple, flexible mechanical arm, is capable of frying 100 chickens in two hours -- a task that would require around five people and several deep fryers.

But not only does the robot make chicken more efficiently -- it makes it more delicious, says Kang.

"We can now say with confidence that our robot fries better than human beings do," she said.

Investing in 'foodtech'

Already a global cultural powerhouse and major semiconductor exporter, South Korea last year announced plans to plough millions of dollars into a "foodtech" fund to help startups working on high-tech food industry solutions.

Seoul says such innovations could become a "new growth engine," arguing there is huge potential if the country's prowess in advanced robotics and AI technology could be combined with the competitiveness of Korean food classics like kimchi.

South Korea's existing foodtech industry -- including everything from next-day grocery delivery app Market Kurly to AI smart kitchens to a "vegan egg" startup -- is already worth millions, said food science professor Lee Ki-won at Seoul National University.

Even South Korea's Samsung Electronics -- one of the world's biggest tech companies -- is trying to get in on the action, recently launching Samsung Food, an AI-personalised recipe and meal-planning platform, available in eight languages.

Lee predicted South Korea's other major conglomerates are likely to follow Samsung into foodtech.

"Delivering food using electric vehicles or having robots directly provide deliveries within apartment complexes, known as 'metamobility,' could become a part of our daily lives," he said.

"I am confident that within the next 10 years, the food tech industry will transform into the leading sector in South Korea."

'Initially struggled'

Entrepreneur Kang now has 15 robot-made chicken restaurants in South Korea and one branch in Singapore.

During AFP's visit to a Seoul branch, a robot meticulously handled the frying process -- from immersing chicken in oil, flipping it for even cooking, to retrieving it at the perfect level of crispiness, as the irresistible scent of crunchy chicken wafted through the shop.

Many customers remained oblivious to the hard-working robotic cook behind their meal.

Kim Moon-jung, a 54-year-old insurance worker, said she was not sure how a robot would make the chicken differently from a human "but one thing is certain -- it tastes delicious."

The robot can monitor oil temperature and oxidation levels in real time while it fries chicken, ensuring consistent taste and superior hygiene.

When Kang first started her business, she "initially struggled" to see why anyone would use robots rather than human chefs.

"But after developing these technologies, I've come to realise that from a customer's perspective, they're able to enjoy food that is not only cleaner but also tastier," she told AFP.

Her next venture is a tip-free bar in Koreatown in New York City, where the cocktails will feature Korea's soju rice wine and will be made by robots.

Unlocking Precision in Robotics with Dynaflex: A Dynalog-US Innovation.

Precision is paramount in today's fast-paced world of automation, with industries such as aerospace, automotive, electronics, and advanced manufacturing requiring robot systems to function with precision, in order for the process to deliver quality and consistent performance. This is where Dynatrol-US Dynaflex provides an unparalleled solution to improve robot calibration and motion control for industrial environments. 

So, what exactly is Dynaflex?

Dynaflex is sophisticated real-time calibration developed by Dynalog-US- a leader in robotic accuracy solutions. These advanced dynamic performance assessment tools were developed specifically for robot systems. Dynaflex measures the dynamic performance (how robots behave while they operate), versus static calibration tools (preset calibration baked into the robots programming) by evaluating robot compliance and flexibility in real-time. This type of dynamic assessment provides potential for accuracy to industries where tolerances must be tight and conditions demand high levels of performance reliability.

Simply put Dynaflex gives practitioners visibility and insight into how a robot responds dynamically while at work and if sufficient stress or force signatures, behaviour is exhibited. In many cases, this is no different than creating significant and costly rework..

Why is Dynaflex so Important?

When robots perform jobs such as welding, painting, and assembling, even the most minor deviation in motion can create defects or misalignment. Traditional calibration methods consider positioning, but often don't consider the dynamic changes in robot posture due to many different factors such as: gravity, speed and payload. Dynaflex effectively takes calibration to the next level by adding dynamic variables to the calibration equation.

With the Dynaflex system, manufacturers can:

Measure and minimize robot compliance (flexibility under load)

Achieve better path accuracy with complex work processes

Validate robot performance in real-world conditions

Identify mechanical anomalies before they can become major catastrophes

Maximize repeatability and process consistency

These are meaningful relationships to ensure that the robot moves correctly on paper, but that it also can perform accurately on the production floor. 

How Does Dynaflex Work?

Dynaflex implements a series of highly sensitive measurement tools and calibration routines that allow engineerings to visualize how the end effector of a robot moves while under load, or at high speed. By measuring real-time flexing, oscillation and inertia, Dynaflex creates a comprehensive map of the robot's behavior.

Once the data has been collected, the data is used to adjust the robot's motion algorithms and account for mechanical variation. 

Who is Dynaflex for?

Dynaflex is ideal for companies and industries that expect critical congruency and which themselves use robotic automation, including:

Automotive manufacturing

Aerospace and defence

Medical devices

Electronics assembly

Metal fabrication

3D printing and additive manufacturing

If your company relies on multi-robot cells, automated welding cells, or pick-and-place systems, introducing Dynaflex to your calibration operations will provide great benefit.

Dynalog-US: The Experts in Robot Calibration

Dynalog-US was founded to provide accurate and reliable robotic systems and has been a leader in robot performance technology for several decades. Their products are being used by leading world manufacturers, many of whom are in the Fortune 500.

Whether it is for robotic inspection, Tool Center Point (TCP) calibration or improving robot cell accuracy, Dynalog has a history of introducing products to the marketplace that demonstrate thoughtful engineering, industry leading performance, and great customer support.

Dynalog's market leading solutions, to include Dynaflex, come with documentation, field training, and technical consulting, which is more than just selling a product; Dynalog provides a partnership to achieve your production success.

Many companies have seen measurable improvements after adding Dynaflex to their robotic workflow:

Up to 40% improvement in path accuracy Considerably less joint stress and less component wear Reduction of rework and scrap percentage Faster ROI from robotic systems

One aerospace customer even found that Dynaflex helped them to achieve their tolerance requirements that they previously thought could be accomplished only with standard robots or off-the-shelf robotic equipment.

Future of Robotic CalibrationAs AI, machine Learning, and Industry 4.0 technologies evolve, the need for ongoing performance validation to and compliance will become more valuable. Also, autonomous systems will validate performance more often, and human interventions will be using tools like Dynaflex to ensure safety, quality, and efficiencies.

With Dynaflex by Dynalog-US, businesses now have a scalable and future-proof calibration platform to leverage for future use and to enhance work processes while accomplishing productivity and accuracy improvements in the immediate.

Conclusion

When you invest in robots, investing in robot performance has to be a given. Properly calibrating robot performance starts with the initial calibration when it is stationary, when it is in motion, while it is under load, and evaluating at the full-speed capability.

Dynaflex by Dynalog-US is a calibration device that provides the measurement data (metrics) to give you a competitive advantage for an ever-evolving automated world.
