(EstateNewsWire.com, August 22, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA -- Recently a computer scientist named Yu Suzuki, and his colleagues at Kyoto Sangyo University mapped out a kitchen with cameras on the ceiling that pan out the cooking recipes on the different ingredients. The purpose of such a kitchen is to ensure that no time is wasted while continuously looking over at cookbooks.
Suzuki said: “Any cook can easily prepare a meal, without even the training necessary.”
For instance, if you want to prepare a fish for grilling, you will set it down on the counter. After that, cameras detect the outline and identify the item placed. Using these laser lights will then guide the cook related to the placing of cuts. In some cases notes appear so the guidelines can be read for details.
This entire kitchen also comes along with a personal assistant named Phyno. If a lack of movement is felt at any time in the cooking process, Phyno will confirm if the instructions are clear. The cook can confirm by answering in the affirmative and process continues on.
This model does have certain constraints, especially because there is no presence of a manual study of cooking techniques. So currently, it only helps cooks to slice fish and cut onions. Suzuki says that in the future the procedure will become controlled and much more useful. His work will be on display at the Asia Pacific Conference this month in Japan.
Jinna Lei has set up cameras to observe beginner chefs. These cameras can analyze details in depth by storing detailed appearances of food items and associating them with the cooking actions. These are then stored in the memory for future use.
The structure of the cameras incorporates object and action detection to decide what is being cooked. For example, cutting is associated with apples, and bowls are used for mixing and storing. These actions make every item different and the device has a success rate of up to 80%. Methods such as thermal cameras are being considered to improve this rate. Lei will be presenting his project at the UbiComp conference in the upcoming month.
Lei relies on the hope that sooner or later her invention will be able to reveal any errors in recipes. For instance, if ingredients not needed in a recipe are being added, the smart kitchen can warn the cook. If both Lei and Suzuki work in conjunction, it could do wonders in terms of the final result.
