When a customer requests a cookie, the robot pulls a cookie from the cookie repository slide and moves it, via a conveyor belt, to the decorating area. In the decorating area, a stencil is placed on the top of the cookie. Then, a motor engages a can of edible spray paint to color the surface. For the anniversary, the robot used four different stencil patterns; the CEEO logo, a LEGO minifig, Gears, and a Tufts Jumbo Elephant.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Cookie Robot\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-kwwJVBVjZY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>A big thanks goes to Lyndell\u2019s, a local bakery.
