A
Japanese company called VitaCraft has come out with a pan that
communicates with the stove top using RFID. Simply place your recipe card under the reader, and the pan will monitor
and adjust the heat on the pan according to the recipe. This is a really neat idea, but the problem is that there's
simply more to recipes than heat regulation. There are just too many variables to regulate when cooking, which is
probably why it's so difficult to make a robot to cook without supervision.
Another potential problem with the RFID pan is that someone could hack it to burn your shrimp. Think about it--just go around the city with a powerful RFID transmitter and burn everyone's meal!
