COOKING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18219393 titled 'COOKING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a cooking apparatus and a method for controlling it using a camera and a user interface. The apparatus can capture an image of itself and the surrounding area, detect user input, and perform cooking operations based on the input.

  • The cooking apparatus includes a camera that captures an image of itself and the surrounding area.
  • A user interface is used to detect user input for controlling the cooking apparatus.
  • The apparatus has a memory that stores instructions and a processor that executes these instructions.
  • The processor acquires the image from the camera and detects user input based on the image.
  • It identifies whether the input corresponds to a cooking act using the cooking apparatus.
  • If the input corresponds to a cooking act, the processor controls the cooking apparatus to perform the corresponding cooking operation.

Potential Applications

  • Smart kitchen appliances that can be controlled through image recognition and user input.
  • Automated cooking systems that can detect and perform cooking operations based on user commands.
  • Remote cooking devices that allow users to monitor and control their cooking from a distance.

Problems Solved

  • Simplifies the control of cooking apparatus by using image recognition and user input.
  • Enables automation of cooking operations based on user commands.
  • Provides a convenient way to monitor and control cooking processes remotely.

Benefits

  • Enhanced user experience with a simplified and intuitive control interface.
  • Improved efficiency and accuracy in performing cooking operations.
  • Enables remote monitoring and control of cooking processes for convenience and flexibility.


Original Abstract Submitted

A cooking apparatus and a method for controlling thereof are disclosed. The cooking apparatus includes a camera configured to capture an image of the cooking apparatus and at least part of an area surrounding the cooking apparatus; a user interface configured to detect input for control of the cooking apparatus; at least one memory storing at least one instruction; and at least one processor configured to execute the at least one instruction to: acquire, through the camera, the image of the cooking apparatus and the at least part of the area surrounding the cooking apparatus, detect through the user interface an input for control of the cooking apparatus, based on the image, identify whether the input corresponds to a cooking act using the cooking apparatus, and based on identifying that the input corresponds to the cooking act using the cooking apparatus, control the cooking apparatus to perform a cooking operation corresponding to the input.
