For example, when the food material information is identified as 500 brown rice according to the food material image, the identified result is sent to the user, but the user finds that the material just added is actually 450g of millet, so that the user adjusts the result to be identified in the fed-back first feedback information, and the final stored result is the result adjusted by the user.
In any one of the above technical solutions, preferably, after the step of identifying the food material information according to the food material image, wherein the food material information includes the category information of each type of food material and the stock information of each type of food material, the method further includes: and generating and sending the matched recipe list according to the food material information.
In the technical scheme, after the food material information is identified, it can be presumed that the user needs to cook according to the food materials in the existing material bin, and therefore, an adaptive recipe list is generated and sent according to the food material information, and the recipe list comprises various recipes which can be finished according to the existing food materials, so that the user can select from various recipes.
In any one of the above technical solutions, preferably, after the step of controlling the sensing device of the cooking appliance to detect the open/close state of the lid of the cooking appliance in real time, the method includes: when the sensing device detects that the box cover is in an open state, starting a timing device of the cooking appliance and recording the uncovering time length; judging whether the uncovering time is longer than a preset time or not; and when the cover opening time is longer than the preset time, starting a reminding device of the cooking utensil for reminding.
In the technical scheme, when the state of the box cover is detected, when the sensing device detects that the box cover maintains the opening state, the timing device of the cooking appliance is started, the opening time is recorded, the opening time is the time for maintaining the opening state of the box cover, when a user opens the box cover all the time and exceeds the preset time, the situation that the user forgets to close the box cover or the buckling of the box cover and the material bin is not tight is described, therefore, the reminding device for opening the cooking appliance is reminded, the reminding can be sent to a mobile terminal, an intelligent television, an intelligent sound box, a display screen of the cooking appliance and other equipment, so that the user can know the reminding through the equipment, and also can generate warning sounds such as alarm buzzing and the like to remind the user of paying attention.
In any of the above technical solutions, preferably, the step of generating an adapted recipe list according to the food material information specifically includes: and providing a recipe list which is formed by combining various food materials according to the type information and the stock information, wherein the recipe list comprises at least one recipe and the number of people having meals of at least one recipe.
According to the technical scheme, when the recipe list is generated, the recipe list which is formed by combining various food materials is provided according to the type information and the stock information, namely, the recipe list which can be cooked is listed in the material bin according to the stored various type information and the stock information, and in order to ensure that a user can accurately select the recipe, the number of people for eating each recipe is listed in the recipe list.
For example, the material bin comprises 100g of red beans, 100g of brown rice and 200g of coix seeds, so that the recipe list can comprise three combinations of red bean porridge, brown rice and red bean and coix seed porridge, and the number of people for eating the three combinations is 2, 2 and 3 respectively, so that the user can select the recipes more accurately.
In any of the above technical solutions, preferably, the method for controlling a cooking appliance further includes: receiving second feedback information responding to the recipe list, and cooking according to the second feedback information; wherein the second feedback information comprises: selecting a menu and the number of people having meals; the feedback information further includes: the dining time period.
In the technical scheme, after the recipe list is sent to the user, the user feeds back the recipe list, and reads data in second feedback information sent by the user, so that cooking is performed according to the second feedback information, and the second feedback information comprises a selected recipe and the number of people having a meal, that is, the user selects from a plurality of recipes contained in the recipe list, so that a subsequent cooking appliance can cook according to the selected recipe, and the actual number of people having a meal is informed, for example, the recipe list can comprise three combinations of red bean porridge, brown rice and red bean and coix seed porridge, the three combinations are respectively suitable for 2 people, 2 people and 3 people, and the second feedback information sent by the final user selects the recipes of red bean, coix seed porridge and coix seed porridge 2 people, so that although the food material in the material bin can cook red bean and coix seed porridge with 3 people, in the actual cooking, the cooking is performed according to the number of diners required by the user.
In any of the above technical solutions, preferably, after the step of receiving second feedback information in response to the recipe list and cooking according to the second feedback information, the method further includes: controlling the camera device to obtain the food material image again, and updating the type information and the stock information according to the food material image; and when the stock information is less than or equal to the preset stock, generating and sending material feeding reminding information.
According to the technical scheme, after cooking, the food materials in the material bin are reduced due to cooking, so that stock information needs to be acquired again, the camera device is controlled to acquire the food material image again, the type information and the stock information are updated according to the food material image, namely shooting is performed again after the cooking is finished, the shot food material image is identified, and the existing stock of the various food materials is updated; and when the stock information is less than or equal to the preset stock, generating and sending material feeding reminding information so that a user can feed materials.
Conceivably, the material feeding reminding information includes the type of the material to be fed and the amount of the material to be fed.
In any one of the above technical solutions, preferably, the step of controlling the imaging device of the cooking appliance to acquire the food material image in the material bin of the cooking appliance includes: and controlling the camera device to traverse the material bins and shooting the food material images in the material bins in sequence.
In this technical scheme, because the quantity in material storehouse is a plurality of, only camera device traverses the material storehouse in proper order to in-process that camera device traversed the material storehouse in proper order, shoot the edible material image in each material storehouse in proper order, realize camera device and shoot the purpose to all material storehouses, set up the purpose that camera device shot the material in all material storehouses with this step, avoid leading to the condition emergence that can't comprehensively and accurately master the material information in the material storehouse because of omitting.
