Abstract
There is provided an auto detection system including a thermal detection device and a host. The host controls an indication device to indicate a prompt message or detection results according to a slope variation of voltage values or 2D distribution of temperature values detected by the thermal detection device, wherein the voltage values include the detected voltage of a single pixel or the sum of detected voltages of multiple pixels of a thermal sensor.
Claims17
An auto detection system, comprising:
- a thermal detection device, having a field of view covering a pot on a stove, the thermal detection device configured to output a thermal frame having multiple temperatures;
- and
- a host, configured to receive the multiple temperatures, and control an indication device to remind a user to put ingredients in the pot upon identifying that at least one of the multiple temperatures is larger than a heating threshold.
An auto detection system, comprising:
- a thermal detection device, having a field of view covering ingredients, the thermal detection device configured to output a thermal frame having multiple temperatures;
- and
- a host, configured to receive the multiple temperatures, and control an indication device to remind a user to turn over the ingredients upon identifying that uniformity of the multiple temperatures is lower than a uniformity threshold.
An auto detection system, configured for stove detection, the auto detection system comprising:
- a thermal detection device, having a field of view covering the stove, and configured to output a thermal frame having multiple temperatures;
- and
- a host, configured to receive the multiple temperatures, and control a display device to show a message of reaching a target temperature upon identifying that at least one of the multiple temperatures is larger than a heating threshold.
