Abstract
Provided are a cooking appliance, and a system and method for controlling a cooking appliance. The system includes a RF tag and a cooking appliance. The RF tag stores food information about foods as integrants of a dish and the cooking appliance having a RF reader reads the food information stored in the RF tag. The cooking appliance includes a memory, a cooking appliance controller, and a display unit. The memory stores dish information about dishes that can be cooked using the food information. The cooking appliance controller reads dish information from the memory, and the display unit displays at least one of the dish information to a user.
Claims29
A system for controlling a cooking appliance comprising:
- a RF (radio frequency) tag for storing food information about foods as integrants of a dish;
- and
- a cooking appliance having a RF reader for reading the food information stored in the RF tag,
- wherein the cooking appliance includes:
- a memory for storing dish information about dishes that can be cooked using the food information;
- a cooking appliance controller for reading dish information from the memory;
- and
- a display unit for displaying at least one of the dish information to a user.
A method for controlling a cooking appliance comprising:
- reading at least one food information about a food as ingredient of a predetermined dish from a RF (radio frequency) tag;
- generating dish information about dishes that can be cooked using foods in the read food information with reference to the read food information;
- and
- displaying the dish information on a cooking appliance.
A method for controlling a cooking appliance comprising:
- radiating energy by applying power to a RF (radio frequency) reader;
- and
- performing a working mode of a cooking appliance if the RF reader senses that the RF tag is present in a heating area of the cooking appliance.
A cooking appliance comprising:
- an oven cavity;
- a door for selectively opening the oven cavity;
- at least one of heaters for heating inside of the oven cavity;
- a RF (radio frequency) reader disposed at a predetermined location to perform radio frequency communication in an inside of the oven cavity;
- and
- a controller for controlling an oven,
- wherein the controller performs a warning mode if the RF reader senses that a RF tag is present in the inside of the oven cavity.
A method for controlling a cooking appliance comprising:
- reading food information from a RF (radio frequency) tag using a RF reader disposed inside a cooking appliance;
- transmitting current state information of a food processed using at least the food information from the cooking appliance to a server;
- and
- transmitting optimal control data of the cooking appliance to cook the food, from the server to the cooking appliance.
