SWITL scoops oozy goop with amazing robotic precision (video)

Look, sometimes, hardly ever, but sometimes we’ll miss a really spectacular and mind bending story that requires a double-back. The SWITL robotic hand is simply this kind of case. The patent-pending technology looks to were revealed on video back in late October showing the Furukawa Kikou robot deftly lifting a ketchup and mayonnaise mess from a table after which replacing it unchanged from its original shape. The tech was developed for bakeries with the intention of automating the handling of soppy substances that were either too malleable or too icky for human hands to address. Unfortunately, Furukawa Kikou isn’t providing any information about the science behind SWITL so we’ll just assume that it’s Satan’s work until otherwise informed. See what we mean within the video after the break.
