The technology disclosed herein relates to intelligent home/residential cooking appliances and interactive content that is interpretable to send instructions to such intelligent cooking appliances, as well as associated systems and/or methods for generating and/or processing the same. In certain instances, an intelligent home/residential appliance may receive and/or display the content for a user and, at appropriate times, possibly prompt a user to take actions or automatically take appropriate actions for the user. Such activities advantageously may prompt a user in some examples to more actively participate in, and/or interact with, a cooking show or program. A user therefore may be more immersed in a cooking experience and feel more comfortable trying out new recipes, given the expectation that the cooking appliance itself may help to resolve problems as they arise and/or suggest solutions to detected abnormalities.

Intelligent home cooking appliance, associated systems, and/or methods

An apparatus for cooking a food item includes a pressure-cooking appliance having a synergistic combination of a housing assembly, a heating assembly, an outer pot, a removable inner cooking pot, a lid assembly, a sensor assembly, a cooking controller, and a memory unit.

Apparatus for cooking a food item

According to another aspect, the subject application involves an oven and a method of controlling an oven for cooking a food item. The oven includes a cooking cavity, a user interface comprising an input device to be actuated with a single actuation event by a cook to select a predetermined cooking mode for cooking the food item, a heating element operable to produce heat required to cook the food item within the cooking cavity, and a control unit. The method includes receiving a cooking signal in response to actuation of the input device with the single actuation event by the cook, and establishing a cooking parameter for the predetermined cooking mode based on the cooking signal. The cooking parameter can be specific to the food item to be cooked according to the predetermined cooking mode of the oven. The method also includes initiating the predetermined cooking mode associated with the input device, and detecting that cooking of the food item according to the predetermined cooking mode is complete.

Cooking appliance and method of cooking a food item

An oven (10) may include a cooking chamber (12), a user interface (140), and a cooking controller (40). The cooking chamber may be configured to receive a food product. The user interface (140) may be configured to display information associated with processes employed for cooking the food product. The cooking controller (40) may be operably coupled to the user interface (140) to direct presentation of cooking parameter entry pages to enable an operator to define cooking parameters for cooking the food product in the cooking chamber. The cooking controller (40) may include processing circuitry (100) configured to enable an operator to make cooking parameter entries in a series of entry pages rendered at the user interface. Each of the entry pages presented may include a selection indicator ribbon displaying graphical elements corresponding to each cooking parameter entered via previous entry pages.

The present invention relates to a method for data communication with a domestic appliance (10) by a mobile computer device (12). The domestic appliance (10) and the mobile computer device (12) are interconnected or interconnectable via a wireless data connection (22). Said wireless data connection (22) is adapted for transferring signals between the domestic appliance (10) and the mobile computer device (12). Further, the present invention relates to application software for the mobile computer device. Moreover, the present invention relates to a domestic appliance. Additionally, the present invention relates to a mobile computer device comprising a display (18) or touch screen.

Method For Data Communication With A Domestic Appliance By A Mobile Computer Device, Mobile Computer Device And Domestic Appliance

A method for selecting and arranging program representatives and a cooking device therefor including displaying program representatives on a display device, where the programs are for a cooking device, selecting program representatives via an input device, where the display device is connected to the input device and a control or regulating device, and storing the programs on a storage device, where the control or regulating device is connected to the storage device, the cooking device, or provided by the cooking device, and to the display device to display a program representative as a virtual token on a virtual token board on the display device. The method also includes placing the virtual token on an area of the virtual token board through various means, which enables a representation of a cooking process through the virtual token board to determine when and how to cook and item using the cooking device.

Method for selecting and arranging program representatives and a cooking device therefor
