An unusual kitchen idea

During the course of a 2-month internship, the winner of the Sharp #GetItDownOnPaper Competition Siobhán Andrews took advantage of the resources available at such a successful and technically adept company to bring her idea to life in the form of a prototype. Her concept for potentially making life in the kitchen easier for any amateur chef is the so-called Chopping Board 2.0, also known as the Chop Sync. The Chop Sync is essentially a large board which combines several practical functions.
An Internet connection provides users with a convenient way of seeking out the required recipe in advance ready to be brought to life in the actual pots and pans. The ingredients needed can be measured out on the spot with the aid of integrated scales, and quantities are automatically calculated depending on the number of diners entered into the system. The surface of the device is even robust enough to allow all the component parts of the meal to be cut to the right shape and size on the chopping board itself. Although Siobhán’s invention may not find its way into the shops, we still think it’s still a pretty cool idea!
