There was a moment of technical hassle before the robot got on track when it was time to bake waffles for visitors.
- One position had changed so the robot lost the fork when it was about to put it back. Then it fell to the floor and cracked, because it's just 3D-printed plastic. You may have to make a reinforcement for the upcoming version, says Jens Lindberg, who is behind the invention.
Make a waffle in 160 seconds
On a daily basis, the home-built robot stands in a garage in Harrbäcken outside Piteå. It was 8-year-old Selda who ordered it from her dad when she was craving waffles.
There has been a lot of crispy food in the family as the robot fixes the perfect waffle in 160 seconds. It did so even today at Teknikens hus in Luleå – where the public could see the wonder and at the same time enjoy the dish on its very own day on March 25.
"There has been a huge amount of interest in the robot," says Jens Lindberg.
