I need this so I don’t spill my cereal in the morning
Yep, I agree
Or oatmeal
Glad we’re in agreement
Or your oatmeal

they need to get out more.
I think the credit for this goes to Mattias Grundelius who wrote his doctoral thesis on controlling liquid slosh back in 2001 at Lund University in Sweden. He doesn’t mention ramen but as a student it’s hard to imagine that he wouldn’t have considered it.
No doubt, this was inspired by Jason’s book, “ROBOT, TAKE THE WHEEL.”
What of the design, Jason?
I fear you have been mesmerized by noodle physics–how can you not comment on that slab-sided half-double Beetle?
I fear it will not age well. It may well become the Pulsar of soup delivery.
I agree with Lightening. I would very much like to know more about this thing. I am imagining it working in conjunction with a lot of other new tech such as active suspension and other road interfaces today.
Cool, now can they fix their CVTs? Or bring back some minitrucks? Maybe one with a hottub in the bed that doesn’t spill…
I would definitely appreciate a deep dive into how this works, because right now, my brain is just going “Magic maybe?” and shrugging.
I predict that 20 years from now, Nissan will be the biggest and richest company in the world, due to their domination of the industry of non-spillage ramen delivery. Nissan the car manufacturer will be a long forgotten memory. We will instead only know them as the “ramen delivery masters” – as we curse their name for their oligopolic control over all our lives, from deep within the Nissan ramen mines.
They can not spill all the ramen they want, I will not forgive them for the IDx.
