The Kitchen Hideaway
The Kitchen Hideaway by Daniel Dobrogorsky from Australia is a virtual reailty design concept where in the inhabitants of a building uses this device to make themselves food. It actually creates a virtual kitchen wherein the user imagines the food he wants to eat. The thoughts created by the headset are then transmitted to robotic chefs that will then prepare the real food with the exact ingredients the user thought of and then deliver it to him or her when it is done. The headset then would replace any kitchen appliances and equipment thus saving more space.
