    A natural cellulose paper sheet, embedded with cooking oil, can reduce or eliminate burns and sticking to pans or casserole dishes.

    By: 2L82Db8RF8 Kitchen
    0

    The Problem

    Many people do not trust non-stick cookware, and / or, prefer traditional cookware; e.g. stainless, ceramic etc. Sticking and burning food to a pan is always a matter of vigilance and skill, even with pro chefs. Cooking oil of some sort has for thousands of years been the way to decrease this problem. As every cook has experienced the oil can be scraped off the surface through stirring, excessive heating, food absorption etc. causing food burns and food sticking to the cookware.

    The Solution

    A protective sheet of cellulose embedded with cooking oil can greatly reduce the sticking/burning issue. It stays put on the bottom and partial sides of the pan, is tasteless, odorless and doesn't dissolve with hydration. The type of cellulose and embedded oil is subject to more research and there are many choices to explore for the best result. The manufactured product would look like individual rice paper sheets that are used for wraps in Asian cooking. It would be an inexpensive and more efficient way of preventing the sticking - burning cooking problem.

    What about a lamp you can use as both a direct lamp and a mood lamp? One product that does both and looks modern.

    By: Marcus Barnes-batty Decor

    The Description

    My product is a lamp which has a modern and unique design design to it. I always wondered about having a direct lamp for working and having a mood lamp that lights up the room. So my idea is lamp which works both as a direct lamp and a mood lamp. I haven't seen a lamp which can be used for both mood and direct light!

    The Customer

    My customer would be someone who's into modern and innovative designs

    Product Comparison

    • there is hardly any lamps that do both mood lamp and direct lamp, if not any so it's really a one of a kind.

    Key Features

    • No other lamp with this design
    • Not many lamps that do both and look this good

    Table-Spotter: Serve Food At The Right Table! (For Waiters & Food Servers Only) (See Designs & Diagrams For Details)

    By: QuirkyJae Wink
    1

    The Problem

    Hello, my name is Jose Barrios and I'm the creator of Table-Spotter. Are you a Waiter or Food Server, or Manager at a large restaurant? Do you or your Waiters/Food Servers have trouble finding the right tables to serve food to their customers? Does it become a hassle when business is booming and you can't find your customer's table? Wouldn't you like something that tells you where the customer is sitting at? Well worry no more!

    The Device

    Table-Spotter is an Application that downloads on to an iPad and is complete with a set of Order Number Cards. When a customer orders food at the cashier and is given a table number, the customer finds his or her table and waits. When the order is ready, the Waiter or Food Server looks at the iPad with a diagram with the restaurant's blueprint of all the tables. It shows where the customer is sitting at because the Order Number Card has a tracking chip that let's the Waiter/Food Server know where they are at. They are able to easily find the customer without going up and down through the entire restaurant. Delivers the food on time! Great for business!

    Up-Alarm: An Alarm Clock That MAKES You Get Up From Bed! (See Designs & Diagrams For Details)

    By: QuirkyJae Other
    1

    The Description

    Hello, my name is Jose Barrios (QuirkyJae) and I'm the creator of Up-Alarm. Have you ever heard the sound of your alarm clock and just hit the snooze button? Wouldn't you like to have the motivation to get up from bed? Wouldn't you want something that gets you going? Well worry no more!

    The Customer

    Up-Alarm is an alarm clock that is connected to a pressure mat. The pressure mat goes under your bed and reads the weight of your bed and calibrates the weight. The alarm clock is set next to your bed like an ordinary alarm clock. Simply set the alarm on Up-Alarm and go to bed. When Up-Alarm reaches the set time, the alarm goes off. The only way to turn off the alarm is if you get up from bed! Once you get up from bed, the alarm turns off. If you lay back down on the bed, the pressure mat under your bed detects the added weight then sends a signal to Up-Alarm. This makes the alarm turn back on! This is an alarm that will MAKE you get up from bed and start the day! No more snoozing!

    UC RESUB!!Want to use iPhone,iPad,iPod while holding an umbrella? Improve the umbrella handle to meet needs of today's apple users!

    By: K-CO Apple accessories
    1

    The Problem

    Difficulty doing other tasks or holding things while using umbrella such as using cell phone or other electronic devices, opening doors , holding dog leashes etc. Limited visibility at night from vehicular traffic and unable to illuminate path, keyholes etc.

    The Solution

    K-CO has redesigned the umbrella handle to include an LED light to allow for better lighting to see deep puddles, keyholes, pets(waste removal)and also serves as a safety feature to keep user visible at night. The handle is designed so the user can slip their hand through an integrated strap over the palm, which allows them to have free use of fingers and thumb for holding cell phone and other electronic devices, open car / building doors, hold groceries, pet leashes, etc. Let's make this more user friendly and ergonomically correct. Would be great for those that have physical limitations and arthritic ailments also.

    • Bright Night Illuminated Umbrella Review — The Gadgeteer

    Key Features

    • Allows user to still have full use of hand that is supporting the umbrella for grasping and handling items.
    • Very unique ergonomic three position hands free handle
    • 1st position of hand would be completely around entire handle as conventional handle
    • 2nd position of hand would be to slip fingers through support slot and wrap thumb around outside
    • 3rd position of hand would be to slip four fingers through slot with back of hand towards main handle allowing use of full hand as thin support strap is in palm of hand.
    • An LED light to light path, keyholes (inside purses, etc) and safety (visibility)
