The Snail, Peter Alwin, India – Micro Induction Heating

The Snail is a portable heating and cooking device based on magnetic

induction processes. Such is the size and versatility of the Snail, it can

be stuck directly on to a pot, a pan, a mug etc. to heat the contents.This

reduces the amount of space required for conventional cooking whilst adding

portability to the process. Powered by a high density sugar crystal

battery, the Snail converts the energy from the sugar, heating up a coil to

conduct the magnetic induction process to the utensil. Integrated sensors

detect the food type being heated; automatically adjusting the time and

temperature. A simple touch sensitive display with interface helps to

monitor the process.
