A lighthouse project for the hotel industry could also be interesting for the MICE sector: Entrepreneur Niels Battenfeld wants to build a symbiosis of AI (artificial intelligence) and human talents in the hotels of his Lieblingsplatz Hotel Group (Germany). The aim is to use cooking robots to gain more time for personal service and thus increase guest satisfaction.
For this purpose, Niels Battenfeld cooperates with Aitme, a manufacturer of fully functional and high-quality cooking robots. The two partners are firmly convinced that this technology will constitute the future of gastronomy. An Aitme kitchen robot can create up to 60 dishes in an hour, or one dish per minute. There are vegetarian and vegan dishes, such as the Green Veg Bowl, or classics like Pasta all' Arrabbiata and Chicken Curry.
The entrepreneur on his motivation to rely on artificial intelligence processes in the hotel kitchen: "We combine robotics with human talents and have a viable and at the same time certainly very futuristic solution for day-to-day operations in relation to the rapidly growing shortage of qualified staff in the German hospitality sector. That doesn’t make our team any less valuable. The opposite is true: the team will benefit from a noticeable reduction in workload."
The new concept of the robot kitchen is also interesting for applications in the MICE industry (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, Exhibitions). In the future, more and more robotic bars (see the article on eventmasterbook.com on a new mobile robotic bar) and cooking robots could be used at trade fairs and other business events – primarily to serve visitors more quickly, but also (depending on the technology) to offer visitors a new technical highlight they are not expecting.
