Countertop robotic arm that scoops food and delivers it to your mouth on a single switch press

Hardware Also software Feeding robot

What it is

A countertop robotic feeding device: a motorized arm mounted on a rotating base holding up to four food compartments. A caregiver loads the plate before a meal and uses a 'teach mode' to record where on the plate to scoop and where near the user's mouth to deliver each bite. From then on the arm repeats that motion whenever the user presses an external switch, the device's own button, or a control in the companion app. It ships with a plate, placemat, four interchangeable utensils, a charger and two button switches.
