The "smart everything"
revolution, or as I like to call it, the "dumb people" revolution,
has gone out of the fire and into the frying pan.
Literally.
Because the newest in the smart
gadget line-up is none other than a smart frying pan. Don't burn your meals any
longer because you forgot to turn down the heat. Don't screw up a delicate
recipe because you went one degree over or under a crucial simmer or boil
decision. The smart frying pan is for you.
New York City-based brother-sister
combo Rahul and Prachi Baxi have invented a new product they call SmartyPans.
You know, for your smartypants phone. It's bluetooth-enabled of course, which
is nice since actual teeth will soon be involved in masticating the product of
said SmartyPans.
Also, it will be able to connect
with your smartypants phone to access recipe apps, where you'll be provided
with step-by-step cooking instructions. Because you know, God forbid that you
should read a recipe on a silly old-fashioned piece of paper. You want to put
your expensive extreme-heat sensitive phone right next to the frying pan.
The pan supposedly warns you if you
need to adjust the temperature and uses built-in sensors to track both the
weight and the temperature of the stuff in the pan. It also uses that data to
track caloric information and can sync with fitness apps to tell you if you're
cooking something that will blow your diet.
Inventor Rahul says it's like GPS
for cooking.
Cool. GPS can get you lost if your
phone's battery runs out. Now you have the chance to go hungry too.
In a related story, inventors have
come out with a "smart hat." It uses GPS to determine if your head is
still attached to your shoulders.
America, ya gotta love it.
