Compare the Eco Rice Cooker to like appliances that you've seen before, and you will observe that this concept by Noh Jihun and Kim Hongjoo presents itself as a great deal less complicated. The fact of the matter is that such a device need not be an elaborate one, for its task is simply to boil the staple grain until it's soft.
The control panel of the appliance has been clarified with two touch-sensitive buttons for cooking your food and keeping it warm. A digital timer is all that you see between them, counting down the minutes until your grains are ready for eating. The Eco Rice Cooker's smooth look would be achieved by manufacturing it with bio-plastic or recycled plastic material.
