This research introduces SmartCook, an avant-garde kitchen appliance that amalgamates sensor technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning to redefine the art of cooking. The device employs an array of sensors, including temperature, moisture, infrared, proximity, electronic tongue, and electronic nose, ingeniously positioned in the lid with foodgrade silicon transparent sealing. This design ensures a non-intrusive manner of sensing, preserving the integrity of both the food and the sensors. SmartCook operates in two modes: Cooking Mode, where experienced users store their personalized cooking patterns, and Guide Mode, designed for beginners seeking expert guidance. The AI processing unit, analysing vapours produced during cooking, intricately captures the nuances of smell, texture, timing, temperature, and moisture to create and store unique recipe patterns for each prepared meal. The addition of a texture-sensing camera placed in the lid, also sealed with foodgrade silicon, enhances the system’s capability to analyze and replicate food textures. This innovative approach transforms SmartCook into a comprehensive, guided, and customizable culinary assistant. The system’s safety mechanisms, including automatic shut-off, prioritize user safety throughout the cooking process. SmartCook revolutionizes home cooking, transforming it into an interactive, guided, and enjoyable journey. With its emphasis on replicating the unique patterns of individual cooks, SmartCook introduces a novel approach to the culinary arts, empowering users to virtually learn and recreate meals from their favourite chefs. This research presents a ground-breaking contribution to the evolving landscape of smart kitchen appliances, offering users an innovative and enjoyable way to explore the world of gastronomy.
