You Can Carry This Microwave Oven on Your Back and Other Future Tech
#HappyMonday! It’s another week and we’re back with more
science and technology news of the future! Without further ado, let’s get
started.
You Can Carry This
Microwave Oven on Your Back
In a modern corporate environment, microwave ovens are
potentially life savers. Especially in culture-rich countries like India, a
majority of people rely on microwave ovens to heat their food. However,
typically, they are very heavy and generate a ton of heat. The Adventurer from UK-based
Wayv and NXP Semiconductors looks to change its bulky character by introducing
a lightweight and portable microwave oven.
With only 200W of power, the portable battery-operated
device weighs 1.2 kilograms and can operate for around 30 minutes on a single
full charge. The company plans to release the thermos-sized device at a price
of $199.
According to the company’s press release on GlobalNewsWire,
“Designed to be compact, rugged, and light-weight, the Wayv Adventurer is intended
to give people the flexibility to efficiently and conveniently heat food
anytime and anywhere. It can serve a number of on-the-go cooking needs
including heating nutritious meals quickly and easily, at the workplace, to
support people affected by disasters or personnel at military bases and in the
field.”
Japan to Display
Artificial Meteor Shower at Tokyo Olympics 2020
To really give a good show to all attendees of the Summer
Olympics 2020 in Tokyo, a Japanese company plans to hold an artificial meteor
shower through its Sky Canvas Project. A satellite will hold the ‘source
particles’ (costing $8100 per pellet) which will be released above the
atmosphere at a height of 60-80km.
“This type of project is new in the sense in that it mixes
astronomy and the entertainment business. These shooting stars that are born
through science function as a high-profit entertainment business, and the
resulting funds will serve to further advance fundamental scientific research,”
said Lena Okajima, Founder and CEO of Star-ALE.
This Edible Spoon
Will Feed Millions Around the Globe
A decomposable and edible spoon by Hyderabad-based Bakeys is
the new way to feed all those around the world not financially equipped enough
to buy cutlery for their daily needs. Focusing on all types of edible cutlery,
the edible spoon is made of millet, rice & wheat flours, has a shelf-life
of 2-3 days, can last 20 minutes in hot liquid.
"Our ambitions stretch far beyond the realm of edible
spoons. Currently, we have molds to produce chopsticks, dessert spoons, and
forks. Our plan is to expand into cups, plates, and many more traditional
disposable tableware. Our goal is to create and expand into a whole new line,"
the company says.
