The Smart Sun Solar Cooker

DesignQuadro designers, Anil Dincer and Murat Ozveri, have just made cooking more energy efficient and compact by creating the Smart Sun Solar Cooker which uses solar energy (even on cloudy days) to cook your food. The design is simple and sleek and is great for outdoor use in areas where an electric outlet is nowhere to be found and your only option is to plug into the sky.

Yanko Design: About the Smart Sun Cooker

The family structure is undergoing a massive reconstruction, and the Smart Sun Solar Cooker addresses this need by being suitable for 1-2 persons. It features solar energy and induction heating, with the top cover of the cooker being laced highly-efficient solar cells that can harness solar energy even on a cloudy day. For induction heating, the stored solar energy is utilized and the food cooks in specialized pot (3 sizes) using steam as a medium.

The smartness factor comes into play with the cooker hooking up to the net to a proposed “Samsung healthy & sustainable cooking network.” Needless to say, via the site one can upload the cooking stats and determine nutritional value of the meal.

A plausible design, till the net connection part; considering our hectic lives, I really wonder how many of us will have the time and inclination to actually determine the nutrition/health facts.
