Castoven


This thing is a microwave oven with an led screen built into the window that automatically plays youtube videos from your computer when you are cooking something. I can see a lot of great ideas that would stem from this design. They way they have it set up now is that your microwave has to be connected to your computer, possibly wireless, but I think they have this prototype wired for now. The program works with a program that youtube has to instantly stream video. This design would be better if they used it for more than just youtube. If they created a way to integrate the kitchen TV into an already existing appliance would save space and possibly money. I do believe they make TVs in refrigerators but how many people want to stand in front of the fridge to watch TV. People already stand in front of the microwave to wait for their food so why not have a TV in there. It might be cool to somehow have the screen disappear when the food is done so you can see the food again through the screen, but also have options to leave the TV on for longer if you choose.
