My Jewish friends know that Mama can always use an extra pair of hands in the kitchen, and Papa can surely use the help with the Seder. At last, help is on the way...


A group of enterprising engineering students at the R&D Institute for Intelligent Robotic Systems CS Department, College of Management Academic Studies, ISRAEL have created a robot to assist with your next passover Seder. In this practice video, the robot serves his guests with precision.

Need an extra pair of hands (or claws) this Passover?

That is great, but what happens if Passover falls on the Sabbath? Would you still be able to use electronic mechanical robots? Is that even covered in the Torah?

Great questions; probably ones the Rabbi has yet to answer. I wonder if these students have thought that through. Perhaps it's on a timer?

Somehow I missed the moment when the guests got onto their chairs... just like the Dalek / stairs scenario :-)
