When you roam around a place with no eating joints and start feeling hungry, don’t you wish you had a magical device that could cook nice food for you instantly? Well, such a magical device is now a reality in the form of HelioDish! This is a compact cooking device that has been crafted by designer Zoltán Nagyapáti for Electrolux. The design concept has its focus on offering a convenient outdoor cooking option for individuals. HelioDish is a round-shaped object that is compact and can be carried to just any place you want. This lightweight dish runs on the power of the sun and can quickly be wrapped up to hang it on your shoulder.
As sunlight is freely available outdoors, you may place this dish anywhere you go and cook your favorite meals anytime. HelioDish is capable not only to boil and cook food items, but to also grill or roast them! When this device is placed under sunlight and turned on, its interface or control panel appears in a magical way. You may then operate the device using these option buttons. Also, there are no special efforts you are required to do for assembling or folding back this whole unit.
The structural design of HelioDish appears to be quite effective and creative. If you look at this compact object, it consists of a set of various different elements. There is a plate at the top of the whole unit that may greatly help you while cooking food in it. This plate also acts as the top lid for providing a cover to the cooked food. Under this plate, a frying-cooking unit exists that is a medium to complete the main task of frying and cooking the food. To cook the food, this unit receives the heat from another unit that is placed under it. This heat energy generator unit is the solar dish, which is the executing or operational unit of the whole device.
The solar dish unit collects the sun’s energy and gets it stored in a solar cell placed on it. As this solar dish is connectable to the upper frying-cooking unit, it can quickly radiate and transfer the heat energy required to prepare the food. At the bottom end, this solar dish is supported by a cushion or bag. Thus, the complete HelioDish can be considered as an effective and modern technique to cook food anywhere you are under the sun.
HelioDish is not only a smart cooking option, but externally looks like a smart device too. It has a stylish compact look with an elegant combination of gray, black, white and yellow color shades. Also, the device is a durable option as far as its transportability is concerned. This product is not only safe to prepare and store your food in, but is also safe to the environment. Its Eco-friendly approach makes it a healthy cooking device, quite apt for a nomadic lifestyle, while your food gets ready without any cooking cost.
