Big, bulky food tends to heat unevenly in even the best microwaves. One side of the item becomes unbearably hot, while the other is still cold. The proposed microwave would have a low-resolution infrared camera and five small magnetrons. When the evencook feature is selected, the oven first turns
on all the magnetrons at the same power, waiting for the item to initially warm up. After the item is warmed, the camera looks at the item and finds the cold spots. The magnetrons, which are aimed at different areas in the oven, cycle on and off accordingly, thus heating more evenly heating the food.

Could a camera even determine that the center was still too cold? |

Isn't this why Microwaves rotate? |
|
| |
Microwaves rotate to even out the distribution of exposure of the product. However, the food doesn't always heat up or absorb the waves at the say rate, a la something with frost on it. |

Hell yeah, this would rock, and it would also stop that stupid microwave habit of heating the plate not the frozen thing as the plate is wet and the thing is not! That drives me insane!! WORSE still is when the bowl heats up as its ceramic and has a crack in it and got soaked up with water when it went through the dishwasher! Can we have a aiming dishwasher too that only attacks the dirty bits and leaves things perfect and not tainted!? |

(pokes [xenzag]) Were you honestly, or does it just amuse you to find the rather tenuous alternative interpretation? |
