We Americans have an affinity for consumer-centric holidays exemplifying excess — excess shopping, excess eating, and the excess company that forgets to go home. Thanksgiving — our most recent romp into all things excessive — may stereotypically stand as the epitome of overeating, but that doesn’t mean it must also embody excess stress. Now I’m a huge proponent of using modern technology to streamline cooking and other tedious aspects of my life, so when I heard that the folks at Autel Robotics used a drone to prepare their Thanksgiving feast, I was ecstatic.
Drones are already useful in a wide array of situations — film and photography, landscaping, espionage, etc. — so why not cooking? All you need is a quadcopter, chainmail gloves, and the handy cooking guide below, put together by the Shenzhen-based drone company Autel Robotics. We wouldn’t want to lose a finger peeling potatoes or slicing vegetables with the quadcopter’s rotors.
Pro tip: Swap each of the quadcopter’s rotors with an eggbeater to simultaneously mix four bowls of ingredients. Just imagine how much time you’ll save — assuming you’re not doing the cleaning.
