The Popinator Gives New Meaning to "On Demand"
Posted in: Uncategorized
A video of a hot new popcorn delivery system has been popping up on blogosphere and we’d be remiss not to share Popcorn Indiana‘s voice-activated snack-launching apparatus. Details are scant, but word on the street is that the Popinator is the real deal. Watch:
The Englewood, NJ-based popcorn purveyor (all of their corn is grown in Indiana) has purportedly developed the Popinator because the current popcorn consumption paradigm is bogged down by grubby hands and crinkly bags. A little bird tells us that the engineer, identified only as Ted, is multidisciplinary designer Ted Hayes, and his portfolio affirms his past experience with interactive technology: he’s been interested in the Internet of Things since his ITP days, when he made the BubbleViz, “an internet-enabled toy bubble gun that uses an Arduino, XBee and ConnectPort to poll a PHP script and check an IMAP server for new messages, upon which the device showers you with a delightful cascade of bubbles.”
