Innovation Solution
An electronic apparatus with a communication interface and processor that generates a comprehensive recipe guide, providing a guide message and controlling multiple cooking apparatuses based on selected recipes, including prioritizing recipes, managing cooking time, and customizing recipes based on user information, while also controlling a dish washer according to the soiling degree of cooking tools and dishes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If multiple cooking apparatuses are controlled simultaneously for multiple recipes, then cooking efficiency and user convenience are improved, but the complexity of managing cooking order and timing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic apparatus acts as an intermediary that receives user input for multiple recipes, automatically generates an optimized cooking schedule considering apparatus availability and recipe requirements, and transmits control signals to coordinate multiple cooking apparatuses. This mediator function resolves the complexity of managing simultaneous cooking operations across multiple devices.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-planning the cooking schedule before execution. It analyzes recipe requirements, apparatus characteristics, and time constraints to generate an optimized cooking order in advance, then executes this predetermined schedule across multiple apparatuses, eliminating the need for real-time complex coordination.
2Ease of operation
If a comprehensive recipe guide is generated to uniformly control multiple cooking apparatuses, then cooking uniformity and user guidance are improved, but the processing complexity and time required for schedule generation increase
Solution Approach 1:
The electronic apparatus performs preliminary processing by generating the comprehensive recipe guide and cooking schedule in advance based on user input. It consolidates all cooking information, apparatus assignments, and timing details into a single coordinated plan before transmission, reducing the time required during actual cooking execution.
Solution Approach 2:
The system merges multiple recipe instructions, apparatus control parameters, and timing information into a single comprehensive recipe guide. By combining all these elements into one unified instruction set, it simplifies user operation while efficiently processing the integrated information through automated schedule generation.
