Introduction
The purpose of our project is to propose the design of an eco-friendly solar cooker.
This product uses the solar energy to cook and heat the food and drinks. It can be
used in outdoor activities such as camping or emergencies. This product is designed
to be eco-friendly because no excess butane gas released reduces air pollution. This
solar cooker can be used when minimal fuel consumption is essential. This product is
portable, light, supplies green energy, and is beneficial for outdoor cooking activities.

Conclusion
This project involve of designing, selecting material, assembling and testing. While designing the project, the
size and compartment constrain is taken into consideration. It is a challenging to build the light and portable
product, but still manage to allocate the space for solar panel, motherboard for circuit connectivity and
adequate space for heating and cooking. The major contribution on our design is to provide economic and
environmentally-friendly product by using solar energy, The product is fuel-free and reduce cost for gas
charge. Moreover, it promote safer environment and less pollution to atmosphere.
