I'm jealous of the smart person who invented this smart machine :P

how does it pick them up? stabbing them? grasping them? or some kind of vacum?

A Vortex minimum contact gripper - ie blown air over an aerofoil shape to create 'lift' at the centre of the vortex - rather than vacuum which would damage the pancakes.

That is a brilliant and mesmerising robot. I'm going to look at wrapped stacks of pancakes on supermarket shelves in a different light now. :-)

Thank you :-)

That machine is really neat, how does it "know" where a pancake is to pick it up? As far as I can tell, it looks like the pancakes are lined up randomly.

There is a camera in front of each robot's working area - As the pancakes pass through they are photographed and their position on the conveyor is stored and tracked - The software then gives the robot the coordinates for each pancake position and the robot moves there and picks.
