# Cooking and serving general purpose robot

## Abstract

A method is described for a tidying robot to approach a storage device, such as a refrigerator or freezer, containing a food item, and perform a series of actions to remove the food item. The robot then transports the food item to either a cooking device or a serving location. The method may also adjust the operating conditions of the cooking device. The method may also include retrieving serving objects, such as plates and cutlery items from a storage location and transporting those serving objects to a serving location.
