Smart devices in the kitchen

Matt Mason, director of the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University in the US, is very interested in how machines can replace people to do things we don't like at all, such as cleaning homes. He believes that, in just a few years, housewives can fully relax, because there are robots that take on most of the boring jobs.

Roomba - robot vacuum cleaner (Photo: frc.ri) For a long time, we kept thinking of the kitchen as a place to do all kinds of miscellaneous things, but then there would be times when we would see it as a mailing place. relax. And indeed, the revolution has begun - iRobot has launched the Roomba robot vacuum cleaner market, and most recently Scooba - can simultaneously vacuum and clean with water and dry the floor. .

Dan Kara, an expert working for Robotics Trends, said: The future cleaning robot can have many shapes. He envisioned a floor cleaning system installed with sound in the wall. It will 'blow' the garbage to a corner of the room, then be sucked into the vacuum cleaner. After that, the system will spray detergent on the floor, and a robot arm will clean it for you.

Environmentally friendly kitchen

Not only does it bring happiness, the kitchen of the future also aims to be environmentally friendly. Bruce Beihoff, Director of the Technology and Innovation Company at Whirlpool, has pre-announced the installation systems that can regenerate the loss of energy from the furnace to heat the kitchen, water and even the whole. House. And even dirty dishwashing water Scooba - a robot that can simultaneously vacuum and clean with water and dry the floor (Photo: technovelgy) is also filtered and disinfected. His company's lab currently has these items.

The joy of cooking

New culinary support techniques will make you the wise men in the kitchen. The most skillful chefs know that the heat sink pan is the secret to having an attractive pan. Researchers at Whirlpool are experimenting with microwave-cooled ceramic circuits instead of electricity or gas, which will heat up the pan steadily and heat control almost perfectly - preferably 10 to 20 times compared to the best types of pans and pans today.

They are also working on a type of oven that can turn the skin off but give a new layer of 'skin' . Just cut down on excess fat, you just get a dish that meets both sensory and appetite requirements.

They use magnetic fields to heat pans, boil water only half the time compared to the oven now. Induction furnaces can also be used for stewing for a long time.

Relaxing fridge

Daniel Lee, LG Electronics' marketing manager, said: "The refrigerator will be the center of family attention. It will have an interactive contact screen - where you can watch TV, surf the web, Check your e-mail, store your shopping list and place your order in. Refrigerators will be the first place you visit in the morning and the last place you arrive before going to bed. effective, you can collect information from the refrigerator ' .

Revolution of stalls

Have you ever wondered why a 1.9m tall man and a 1.6-year-old woman must stand on the kitchen shelf with the same height? Architectural designer Langmuir said: It is the standard size given 50 years ago, based on the average height of women. But now the situation has changed. Langmuir has designed a self-adjusting kitchen shelf, with a sink and stove. You just need to press the button and it will move to the height you desire.

Meanwhile, Ted Selker and colleagues at the CI Smart Laboratory of MIT Institute of Technology have designed a Dishmaker bowl maker, which helps you shape your dishes from plastic rounds. After the meal, the dishes are returned to their old shape. Another unique CI item is the Softsink soft sink made of silicone. It prevents broken dishes. Even if I threw a glass in it, it just rolled around a few times
