Project Description
According to statistics from the fire department, cooking with stoves is the number one cause of fires. Common reasons include careless cooking, burning food, oil fires, improper use, and unattended stoves. The impact of fires goes beyond just financial losses and can also endanger lives. Therefore, the team developed the " SEFI KNOB" product to ensure the safety of users, particularly the elderly or those with poor memory. Through this innovative design, they hope to effectively eliminate potential hazards and significantly reduce tragic incidents, becoming the guardian of the kitchen.
The assembly and operation of this product are both very simple. The "SEFI KNOB" can be installed on any stove, including single-burner, tabletop, and built-in stoves, without replacing the original stove. Simply replace the switch with the "SEFI KNOB" to use. The cooking process is fully automatically controlled by an AI microcomputer, making it easy and convenient to operate. Under normal operation, the "SEFI KNOB" can be used as a timer and automatically detect if the user forgets to turn off the stove or if it is overheating. In this case, the device will automatically shut off the stove.
