Communicating sustainability through interactive design and prototyping of solar cooker

Cooking and producing clean drinking water is essential in third world countries. Using solar energy for these applications seems obvious and this project focuses on achieving this. It contains design and prototyping of a solar grill using accessible materials in many regards considered garbage after designated use. We build the solar grill from a parabolic shape and a reflective foil. This could be a trashed satellite dish and the wrapping of potato chips. Thus "up cycling" what otherwise would be considered garbage. The design incorporates the goal of simplicity and user friendliness.
