Shake and Bake:

Preliminary Design Report

October 12, 2011

Problem Statement:

The majority of household cooks and small-scale bakers spend hours meticulously measuring

out ingredients by hand, using an assortment of cups, spoons, and scoops. This method is time-

consuming, requires repeatedly washing measuring utensils, and is often inaccurate when performed by

rushed or easily distracted cooks. This device can speed up and clean up the baking process in homes

and small restaurants, allowing cooks to focus on other elements of their work, rather than fussing with

measurements.

Customer Needs:

· Dispenses "quickly"

· Reasonable size/weight in order to be easily handled

· Digitally stores combinations of ingredient measurements for repeated use

· Measures and dispenses multiple baking ingredients

· Device separates different ingredients

· Containers hold entirety of a standard-sized package of ingredients

· Keeps ingredients dry and clean

· Containers can be easily refilled when empty

· Containers are easily cleaned

· Not too "noisy"

· Notified when ingredient containers need to be refilled

· Measures contents in various units commonly used in baking

· Can customize recipes for various batch sizes

· Measures the amount of an ingredient(s) in response to user input

· Measures ingredients accurately
