No more crumbs and disappointments: Meet the frient Cake Detection Sensor
At frient, we want to make life easier, safer, and smarter - and make sure you get the most out of it. After last year's success with the Sigh Monitor and Eye-roll Detector, we are now expanding our ambitions even further.
Because let's be honest: we've all tried it. You head out to the office kitchen with high hopes, only to find a sad plate of crumbs where a cake once stood. And there are few workplace disappointments greater than missing out on free cake.
That is why we are beyond excited to introduce our newest innovation: the frient Cake Detection Sensor.
Just place this little frient in your office kitchen, and voilà - it spots the exact moment someone brings cake into the office and sends an instant cake-fication straight to your phone. Because few things matter more than cake... and making sure you get the biggest piece.
How does it work?
The frient Cake Detection Sensor uses cutting-edge sensing technology to detect:
- fresh cake arrivals in real time
- Frosting density and cream-to-cake ratio
- Whether the cake is homemade, store-bought, or "my partner baked it"
- Suspicious colleague activity near the cake table
- The alarming moment when there is only one slice left
Using advanced crumb analysis and intelligent frosting recognition, the sensor can even estimate how urgently you need to leave your desk.
Real-time alerts for cake-critical situations
Compatible with your favorite Zigbee hub, the frient Cake Detection Sensor keeps you updated on all important cake-related events in the office.
Receive instant notifications such as:
- "Cake detected in kitchen. Estimated quality: very promising"
- Warning: colleagues gathering near chocolate topping
- "Urgent: only two slices left"
- Critical alert: somebody is cutting unusually large pieces
And for particularly serious situations, the sensor activates Priority Cake Mode, helping you respond before the last crumbs disappear.
