The White Castle restaurant chain said it is expanding the use of the Flippy Robot-on-a-Rail (ROAR) system to more U.S. locations, after a successful test pilot in one establishment.

Developer Miso Robotics said the robot can glide across multiple workstations on a rail, easing storage and use, while relying on artificial intelligence and machine learning to cook food.

Miso said, "Capable of identifying current temperatures, predicting time remaining to meet consistency in taste perfection, and alerting staff of unsafe internal cooking temperatures, ROAR features powerful image processing and depth perception from Intel RealSense technology."

White Castle intends to use Flippy as a kitchen assistant during night shifts.
