Why Robot Arms Still Can't Slice a Tomato

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the surprisingly difficult challenge of teaching a robot arm to slice a tomato. They break down the physics of cutting with a knife — variable friction, deformable objects, precise force control — and explain why even the most advanced industrial arms from companies like Fanuc and ABB struggle with a task a sous-chef does in seconds. With comparisons to Amazon's robotic depalletizing and a recent paper from MIT's CSAIL, they show why food handling is robotics' next great frontier. #RobotArms #TomatoSlicing #DeformableObjects #ForceControl #Robotics #FoodHandling #Fanuc #ABB #MITCSAIL #AmazonRobotics #AutonomousSystems #IndustrialRobots #Hardware #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #TheRoboticsPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
