Robot muffin man

Two Industrial Electrical Technician students built this automated muffin-making machine. The video captions are in French and there are no details about the construction, but it's still kind of cool to watch.

Nice!

Good concept, and I am sure that for a project for college it was in the top 5 or so... but there seems to be room for improvement. parelle tasks would speed up the filling process: Pull a cup down while filling the other.

Kudos anyway!

They could learn something from progressive reloading presses used to make pistol cartridges. After all the money we spend on war, it would be nice to adapt some of that tech to make muffins.
