An automatic control system for a cooking appliance monitors and adjusts a cooking operation on the cooking appliance. The automatic control system includes at least one control knob assembly, an image capturing device, and a controller operably coupled to the at least one control knob assembly and the image capturing device. The controller is configured to perform a series of operations, including receiving a desired temperature of a food item; capturing a first image of the food item; analyzing, by one or more computing devices using a machine learning image recognition model, the first image to determine one or more features of the food item; generating an input state of the food item based on the first image analysis; and determining an output action via a reinforcement learning system.

A temperature-regulated apparatus for food and drink preparation and storage, particularly for refrigeration and sous vide cooking. The apparatus is preferably a consumer electronic device comprising a compartment, base, reservoir, tube network, heating and cooling element, and an air pump system. The apparatus is controlled electronically and wirelessly in connection with a hardware and software system.

A cooking device (10). The cooking device (10) comprises: a cooking unit (200), which is configured to cook food ingredients; and an ingredient feeding device (100), which is located above the cooking unit (200). The ingredient feeding device (100) is connected to the cooking unit (200) by a feeding port (140); the ingredients can enter the cooking unit (200) from the ingredient feeding device through the feeding port (140). The ingredient feeding device (100) comprises: a rotary mechanism (110), the side surface of the rotary mechanism (110) being provided with at least one storage box (120), the rotary mechanism (110) being driven to rotate about a rotary axis to enable a predetermined storage box (120) to rotate from a non-feeding position which deviates from the feeding port (140) to a feeding position aligned with the feeding port (140), and a separator (122) being provided at the bottom of the storage box (120); and a separator actuating device (130), configured to enable the separator (122) to move from a holding position for blocking the ingredients from falling off to a release position for allowing the ingredients to fall off.

A connected oven, including a set of in-cavity sensors and a processor configured to automatically identify foodstuff within the cooking cavity, based on the sensor measurements; and automatically operate the heating element based on the foodstuff identity.

A food class of a food item is recognized. A target doneness score is defined for the food item based on the food class and a desired doneness level. A recurrent model is utilized to determine a current doneness score of the food item according to sensor data captured of the food item. The current doneness score and the target doneness score are utilized to control a heating system to cook the food item.
