«A magic stove»

With the appearance of high technology the speed of our life becomes faster. People began to spend less time for eating and sleeping. It has a bad effect on health of our generation. Modern generation needs energetic nutrition. We eat unhealthy, junk food and have a stomachache and a stomach ulcer. Therefore I constructed a new invention. It will help people to eat healthy food and always be filled with force. I called my invention « A magic stove». It's easy to use it. Just take a picture of any product, put it into the stove, switch on, wait for 10 seconds and get fresh healthy food with vitamins and minerals. You can use this invention in all service industries: at canteens, restaurants, schools and shops and of course at homes.

«A scanner of mood»

My invention will help people be always in a good mood. You come home, but you are not at home, you are on a sunny beach. You go to a bedroom and get to a place like this or this. You are not in the kitchen; you are in this romantic place. All this happens to my invention «A scanner of mood». It feels the mood of a person and helps to improve it.
