PAI is a projector that projects a full-featured interface onto the kitchen counter. It is mounted under the hanging kitchen cupboard or on the wall. In combination with an integrated 3D sensor, it turns the kitchen counter into a touchscreen, which can be used to show recipes or to access other apps while working in the kitchen, and which is convenient to operate. The appearance of the PAI is inspired by a tablet, but it is designed to work properly even when cooking with oil and at a higher air humidity level.
Statement by the Jury
This kitchen projector transforms the kitchen counter into an interactive display that shows digital content and is easy to operate, even with dirty and wet hands.
