An ergonomic storage tray with enhanced stability to secure beverage storing cups and food items is provided. The storage tray includes a tray having a top surface, a bottom surface, a first pair of opposing side surfaces, a second pair of opposing side surfaces, and a plurality of compartments designed to store beverage storing cups and food items. The tray includes an off-center thumb hole and a cutout on a side surface in the first pair of opposing side surfaces. The thumb hole in the tray receives the thumb of the user, the cutout in the tray receives the upper arm and elbow of the user, and the bottom surface of the tray contacts the forearm of the user, thereby securely supporting the beverage storing cups and food items in the tray.

Tray utensils of identical dimensions are stacked into an assembly and wrapped within a transparent package displaying a visual image of a tray utensil holding within a tray receptacle a standard beverage can upright generally vertically while the tray is oriented generally horizontally and used to hold selected hors d'oeuvres.

A serving tray is disclosed. The serving tray includes a planar shaped body having a length, weight, and height. The height is substantially less than the length and the width. An upward-facing surface of the tray has at least one cutout. A magnetic element is positioned inside each at least one cutout. A connecting element attaches each magnetic element to each cutout such that an upward facing surface of each magnetic element is substantially flush with the upward-facing surface of the tray.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a beverage serving tray capable of coupling multiple beverage serving trays to increase overall beverage capacity of the resulting coupled beverage serving tray. The beverage serving tray is capable of stacking with other beverage serving trays in an efficient and space saving fashion or may be stored preloaded with beverage vessels for quick and efficient preparation prior to serving. The beverage serving tray comprises a main body having a top member and bottom member, and at least one joining member joining the bottom surface to the top member. The top member includes beverage openings to accept beverages, as well as to couple additional beverage serving trays to increase beverage capacity. Multiple beverage serving trays may be coupled together by inserting beverages through aligned beverage openings of adjacent beverage serving trays in order to form a modular beverage serving tray with an increased overall carrying capacity.

A modular food and/or drink carrier is provided. The modular carrier can be formed from one or more modular components that are interconnected together. Each modular carrier includes a receiving portion for receiving food and/or drink items and an overlapping portion for connecting to another modular component. Each modular component includes a first locking means formed from a protrusion and slot and a second locking means formed from an accordion component and a receiving slot. The first and second locking means provided on a first modular component interlock together with the first and second locking means provided on a second modular component when the two modular components are connected together. Each modular component can include a buttress support means that engages a portion of another modular component to provide additional support to the modular carrier when the two modular components are connected together.

A transport drone includes: a drone body; a transport unit for carrying an object to be transported; a balancing unit comprising a balancing frame and a swinging device, wherein the balancing frame is connected to the transport unit; the swinging device is respectively connected to the balancing frame and the drone body; the swinging device has rotational freedom; a sensor placed on the balancing frame for detecting a tilt angle of the balancing frame; and a controller electrically connected to both the sensor and the swinging device, wherein the controller controls rotation of the swinging device according to the tilt angle detected by the sensor, so as to adjust the tilt angle of the balancing frame and keep the transport unit in a horizontal state. The transport drone ensures that the items to be transported are in a horizontal state, effectively preventing dumping or damage of the items.

A method, system and computer program product for virtual reality dining includes establishing an index of different human consumables positioned on a sensory surface of a serving tray and, generating in a display of a virtual reality headset, a rendering both of a thematic visual background and also a display of different graphical representations of corresponding ones of the different human consumables at different positions consistent with the index. Thereafter, the removal from the serving tray of one of the different human consumables is detected. In response, a theme of the thematic visual background changes and the thematic visual background re-renders in the headset with the changed theme. Finally, the method includes animating the movement of a display of a corresponding one of the different graphical representations of the removed one of the different human consumables in the headset.
