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.

I wanted to see that go around the corner of that countertop to see if it would also work delivery tofu.
They can not spill all the ramen they want, I will not forgive them for the IDx.
