Of course, the user may set parameters such as cooking time and cooking temperature on the control panel according to the experience of the user, the number of food materials, the taste of the user and other factors. After the setting is completed, the cooking device may perform cooking according to a cooking program stored in the cooking device itself or a cooking program set by the user himself.
Before the user uses the cooking device to cook, the user operation can be recorded by selectively using the image acquisition device of the cooking device. At this time, the operation process of the user outside the cooking device can be recorded as long as the second image acquisition device is controlled to be turned on. When the cooking equipment starts a cooking program, the internal image in the cooking cavity needs to be recorded, so the processing device controls the first image acquisition device to be started. The effect of acquiring the internal image and the external image in different time periods can be achieved by controlling the starting time of the first image acquisition device and the second image acquisition device through the processing device. The technical scheme is beneficial to automatically starting recording without the intervention of a user, and can well avoid the inconvenience caused by the fact that the user forgets to start the recording or needs to operate in addition. That is, the first image capturing means is associated with the start of the cooking program, and automatic start and shooting of the first image capturing means can be realized.
Through the setting of two (group) image acquisition devices, can realize the inside shooting of cooking equipment, satisfy the demand of acquireing inside or outside image at any time, and do not need the user to utilize the cell-phone to shoot for oneself and food. More specifically, by arranging the image processing device on the cooking equipment, a user can liberate hands of a self-operated mobile phone, so that the user can take and display the gourmet with two hands, and the image processing device automatically photographs the user and the gourmet, so that the purpose of combining the user with the gourmet is achieved.
It should also be understood by those skilled in the art that the first image processing device and the second image capturing device may be provided in plurality, the number of the image processing devices may be determined by the requirement of image processing, and the installation positions of the plurality of image processing devices may be selected according to the requirement. The first image processing device may be selectively installed outside the first cooking device, or may be any device as long as the image processing device can acquire an external image of the cooking apparatus.
When the cooking equipment is provided with a plurality of image processing devices, one image processing device can process the image of the external object, so that the number of parts can be reduced, the space is saved, and the whole volume of the cooking equipment is reduced. The plurality of image processing devices can simultaneously process the images of the external object, namely, the external object can be simultaneously processed in multiple directions at multiple angles, so that the plurality of images of the external object can be obtained at the same time, more choices are provided for the user to share the images of the gourmet and the images of the user and the gourmet group photo, the user does not need to put various postures or angles, and the time and the energy of the user are saved. The image processing device may be a camera, video camera, or the like.
In the above technical solution, the method further comprises: judging whether food materials exist in the cooking cavity or not; controlling the at least one second image capturing device to stop capturing the external image based on the food material being in the cooking cavity.
When food materials are already in the cooking cavity, the external images for external food preparation are no longer needed, so that the second image acquisition device is controlled to stop working, the external images are no longer acquired, unnecessary images can be avoided, and the method has significance for saving memory and subsequent image processing work.
In the above technical solution, when the cooking apparatus finishes the cooking program, the first image obtaining device may be controlled to stop obtaining the internal image. When the cooking program is confirmed to be finished, the whole cooking process can be considered to be finished, the image in the cooking cavity does not need to be recorded any more, and therefore the first image recognition device is directly controlled to stop acquiring the image. Therefore, the waste of storage space caused by continuously acquiring the images under the condition that the user does not operate is avoided, the operation steps of the user can be saved, the user does not need to wait beside the cooking equipment, can leave the cooking equipment after all programs are set, and does not need to wait for intervening in the operation of the cooking equipment, and the process of acquiring the images can be automated.
Various kinds of synthesis processing may be performed on the internal image or the external image acquired in the above-described embodiment. For example, capturing pictures from the internal image or the external image, combining the captured pictures into the internal image or the external image to form a new combined image, or superimposing the captured pictures together to form a new combined image; or stitching the internal image and the external image together to form a new composite image; or stitching together the partial image in the internal image and the partial image in the external image to form a new composite image, and the like.
In the technical scheme, the composite image can be compressed to generate a compressed image, and the size of the image file can be reduced through compression, so that the storage and transmission are facilitated. The processing device may also perform operations such as sharing compressed images. By sharing the compressed images, the desire of the user to share the images can be easily fulfilled.
Subsequent operations may also include, for example, save-as-is functionality for subsequent viewing or further processing. The cancel and delete functions may enable a user to select and adjust a desired image. The editing function can improve the operability of the user and improve the quality of the picture. Specifically, when the user approves the shot image, the user can directly share the shot image. When the user needs to generate another shot image and does not cover the original image, an additional storage operation can be executed. When the operation of the user is wrong, the operation can be performed again according to the execution cancellation function. When the user requires further processing of the captured image, an editing function may be performed. When the user is not satisfied with the captured image, a delete function may be performed to delete unwanted photos or videos. The subsequent processing is multifunctional, so that automatic photographing and sharing modes and contents of the cooking equipment can be enriched, and the cooking sharing experience of users can be greatly improved.
