Cobot prices are dropping. This article claims $20K for a mid-range unit.[1] Nala shows two robots, one at the dirty end and one at the clean end of the dishwasher.
Dishwashing is a good opportunity for robots. There are many potential customers for a relatively standardized product. It's much easier than automated cooking.
There are other dishwashing robots. Useful for cafeterias, maybe.[2] Cute, but not too useful.[3] So far, none seem to be deployed much. But that will come.
