Technology never stop to amaze me. Recently, MIT Media Lab’s Counter Intelligence Group have developed a machine that makes dishes on demand and later recycles them after a meal. It made from food-grade, nontoxic acrylic wafers that can be shaped into cups, bowls, or plates when heated. In the recycle process, it will be reheated and retain its original wafer shaped.

The dish-maker can handle up to 150 dishes, so you don’t have to be afraid of not enough dishes at the big party. The prototype machine is able to produce a dish with 6-inches in diameter every 1.5 minutes.
