The ovens featured in this video are made by a US-based company called 'Sun Oven.' However, basic solar ovens can be constructed at home using common tools and materials. The US Department of Energy has instructions for a solar oven that can be constructed by children and is capable of cooking small items here: www.energy.gov/eere/education/articles/making-solar-oven . More advanced and powerful ovens can be constructed with a little more effort. An example of one that is quite effective is here: www.instructables.com/Solar-Oven-Mark-II/
