Patty to Take Over Fast Food?

Momentum Machines is working on a robotic system, nicknamed Patty, that can cook burgers and toast buns, then slide them down to a compartment where veggies get sliced and placed on the burgers. It then adds condiments and bags them. Apparently the entire operation takes less than 30 seconds, thereby leaving the human burger worker to join the ranks of the unemployed. The 5 foot tall prototype is still a work in progress and judging by the unappetizing imagery, it will be a while before a Pattyburger is actual competition.
