Abstract

The growing demand for innovative research in the food industry is driving the adoption of robots in large-scale experimentation, as it offers increased precision, replicability, and efficiency in product manufacturing and evaluation. To this end, we introduce a robotic system designed to optimize food product quality, focusing on powdered cappuccino preparation as a case study. By leveraging optimization algorithms and computer vision, the robot explores the parameter space to identify the ideal conditions for producing a cappuccino with the best foam quality. The system also incorporates computer vision-driven feedback in a closed-loop control to further improve the beverage. Our findings demonstrate the effectiveness of robotic automation in achieving high repeatability and extensive parameter exploration, paving the way for more advanced and reliable food product development.
