Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for operating a cooking appliance with at least one cooking area for preparing food to be cooked.
  • the food is monitored in the cooking area during the cooking process.
  • images of the cooking area are recorded over time by means of at least one camera device.
  • the object of the present invention to enable an improved monitoring of food in a cooking space during a cooking process.
  • the monitoring should take place with a camera device.
  • the method according to the invention is used to operate a cooking appliance, in particular an oven with at least one lockable cooking space.
  • the cooking device comprises at least one cooking area for preparing food.
  • the food is monitored in the cooking area during the cooking process.
  • images of the cooking area are recorded over time by means of at least one camera device.
  • the images each consist of a large number of picture elements. All of the direct measurands that are accessible for the entire image are also accessible for each image element.
  • the images are evaluated by means of at least one processing device. Image elements that change over time are identified and assigned as belonging to the item to be cooked, in order to enable a distinction to be made from the image elements in the cooking area that originate from outside the item to be cooked.
  • the method according to the invention offers many advantages.
  • a considerable advantage is that the image elements originating from the food to be cooked contain the properties of the food to be cooked without any falsification, and information is therefore available for further processing or evaluation which actually originates from the food to be cooked with particularly high reliability. Disturbing or irrelevant influences from outside the food to be cooked can then be evaluated or masked out accordingly. This enables significantly improved monitoring of the food to be cooked. In this way, a particularly meaningful characterization of certain cooking product properties can take place.
  • automatic programs can be adapted very specifically to the respective cooking product or the respective cooking process, so that particularly tasty cooking results can be achieved.
  • the special feature of the identification according to the invention lies in the time factor, which is available during cooking processes and which makes it particularly easy to identify the food being cooked. Recognizing in a still image where the food to be cooked is located is extraordinarily difficult and, if at all, only halfway satisfactorily achieved with methods of artificial intelligence. In the method described here, in contrast to the still image, use is made of the fact that a sequence of images about the cooking process can be recorded during cooking, for which it can be observed how individual image elements develop over time. Image elements that contain food to be cooked behave completely differently than image elements that contain the cooking area with cooking space walls, vessels and the like. This otherness does not only refer to the change caused by tanning and discoloration, but also e.g. B. also on distances due to volume changes or changes in surface temperature.
  • the images are recorded in particular during at least one time segment of the cooking process.
  • the image elements that change during at least one time segment of the cooking process are identified.
  • the camera device records images of the cooking area over a period of time in which the food to be cooked is treated and, in particular, warmed or heated.
  • the image elements that change during the treatment and in particular during the heating or heating are identified and assigned accordingly.
  • the images recorded over time are in particular an image sequence.
  • the food to be cooked is arranged in the cooking area during the cooking process. In the context of the present invention, the food to be cooked is in particular not understood as part of the cooking area, even if it is positioned there.
  • the camera device comprises a large number of sensor segments.
  • at least one image element from the cooking area can preferably be detected in a spatially resolved manner with at least one sensor segment.
  • a picture element is in particular assigned to at least one sensor segment of the camera device or in at least one mapped to a sensor segment.
  • picture element and pixel can be used synonymously.
  • those image elements are assigned to the food which have a minimum change over time.
  • the image elements of the food to be cooked can thus be recognized particularly reliably.
  • it is usually only the food that is changed due to the heating.
  • Other parts do not change or only change at the beginning of the cooking process.
  • the walls of the cooking space essentially no longer heat up after heating and change their color and geometry only insignificantly compared to corresponding changes in the food.
  • the minimum change is determined in such a way that a false positive assignment is reliably counteracted.
  • those picture elements are assigned to the food which have a rate of change over time above a threshold value.
  • those image elements are not assigned to the food to be cooked and / or are assigned to the cooking area which do not achieve a minimum change over time.
  • it is the walls of the cooking space and the food carriers that are not changed during the cooking process or after heating. In the holding phase of the cooking space temperature, there is no significant temperature change in these components either.
  • those image elements are not assigned to the food and / or are assigned to the cooking area which have a rate of change over time below a threshold value. At least one time interval is preferably defined over which the minimum change must exist.
  • image elements assigned to the food to be cooked are not taken into account for the further evaluation if these image elements do not achieve a minimum change over time. This enables particularly reliable detection of relevant image areas. For example, it is possible that apples in a cake batter are not taken into account for an evaluation of the browning process. In this way, only the browning of the dough can be specifically monitored without the apples falsifying the result.
  • image elements assigned to the food to be cooked are not taken into account for the further evaluation if they lie outside a course corridor.
  • the course corridor can be determined, for example, at the beginning or in an early phase of the cooking process or also later on the basis of the data already recorded at this point in time.
  • the output value can be determined in advance, for example, and stored in the cooking appliance or in the processing device. It is also possible for the output value to be established or at least partially influenced on the basis of user inputs. The output value can be influenced or selected by entering the type of food to be cooked, for example baked goods, meat or vegetables.
  • At least one change over time of at least one color information and / or brightness information and / or intensity information item is evaluated to identify the picture elements that change over time.
  • Such an evaluation offers a particularly reliable identification of the food to be cooked. It is also possible for the identification of the image elements that change over time to be evaluated for at least one change over time of at least one other suitable characteristic variable of the image processing.
  • those picture elements are assigned to the food which have a minimum change in color information and / or brightness information and / or intensity information over time.
  • Such information can include, for example, a color coordinate and / or brightness coordinate and / or intensity coordinator.
  • color information and / or brightness information and / or intensity information lying outside a limit value are not taken into account for the evaluation. For example, purple or turquoise or other color values that are unusual for cooking or baking processes can be disregarded.
  • those image elements are assigned to the food which have an increase in browning and / or at least a change in a color value that is characteristic of browning, for example a red-green value, over time.
  • those picture elements are assigned to the food which, over time, have an increase in another color value characteristic of browning.
  • the image elements must have a decrease in such a value in order to be assigned to the food to be cooked. Since browning is a particularly characteristic feature for heating many foods, a particularly reliable and accurate assignment can be made.
  • the images captured by means of the camera device show temperature distributions in the cooking area.
  • at least one change in the temperature distributions over time is evaluated in order to identify the picture elements which change over time.
  • the camera setup comprises in particular a thermal imaging camera or is designed as such.
  • the images captured by means of the camera device are, in particular, thermal images.
  • the camera device is suitable and designed to capture images in at least one infrared range.
  • the camera device is designed as an IR camera.
  • a picture element corresponds in particular to a temperature value or comprises at least one such.
  • temperatures from or from the cooking area can be detected in a spatially resolved manner by means of the camera device.
  • those image elements are assigned to the food which have a minimum change over time in the detected heat output and / or the temperature and / or an emissivity and / or a false color value for the temperature. It is also possible for those image elements to be assigned to the food which have a minimum change over time in another variable that can be detected by a thermal imaging camera.
  • the images captured by means of the camera device contain spatial image information from the cooking area.
  • Spatial image information is understood to mean, in particular, three-dimensional image information.
  • at least one change in the spatial image information over time preferably a change in the distance between the surface of the food being cooked and the camera device, is evaluated.
  • those image elements are assigned to the food which have a minimum change over time in the spatial image information and in particular in the distance.
  • those image elements are not assigned to the food to be cooked and / or are assigned to the cooking area which do not achieve a minimum change in the spatial image information and in particular the distance over time.
  • Those image elements are preferably assigned to the food to be cooked, the distance between which increases and / or decreases by a certain minimum amount over time. Whether an increase or decrease is necessary depends, for example, on the positioning of the camera device in relation to the food to be cooked. If the camera device is arranged above or above the item to be cooked, a decrease in the distance or an increase in the height of the item to be cooked is particularly typical for the detection of baked goods. Baked goods usually rise during preparation in the oven and thus gain height. For other items to be cooked and for example for a roast or meat, however, the increase in the distance or the decrease in height can be a characteristic feature for the assignment of the image elements to the item to be cooked. Spatial image information thus enables particularly meaningful monitoring of the food to be cooked.
  • the camera device in particular comprises at least one 3D camera or is designed as such.
  • the camera device is suitable and designed to capture images with three-dimensional image information or three-dimensional images from the cooking area.
  • the image elements provide spatially resolved three-dimensional information from the cooking area.
  • the 3D camera is operated, for example, according to the TOF (time of flight) principle. Other designs for 3D cameras are also possible.
  • At least one course corridor is calculated and / or taken into account during the cooking process, which describes an expected change over time for image elements of the food to be cooked.
  • image elements which lie outside the course corridor are not taken into account and / or are not assigned to the food to be cooked.
  • the course corridor can be determined, for example, at the beginning or in an early phase of the cooking process or also later on the basis of the data already recorded at this point in time. A previously determined course corridor can also be stored.
  • the course corridor can be calculated from data from the current cooking process.
  • the course corridor is preferably calculated from the change over time in the image elements recorded up to that point. It is possible that the course corridor is calculated from a mean value and / or a standard deviation or the like or corresponds to such.
  • the course corridor can be dependent on a set automatic program and / or on a preselected type of food. Such a course corridor offers many advantages for recognizing the food to be cooked. In addition or as an alternative to the course corridor, a target value can also be calculated which an image element must have at the end of the time change in order to be assigned to the food or the cooking area.
  • the image elements of the food to be cooked are identified or assigned within the first 20 minutes and preferably within the first 10 minutes after the start of the cooking process. During this period, the changes in the food due to heating are particularly characteristic, so that a particularly reliable assignment can be made.
  • the image elements of the food to be cooked are assigned after a maximum of 20 minutes and preferably after a maximum of 10 minutes after the start of the cooking process. It is also possible that the image elements of the food to be cooked are assigned within the first 5 minutes or less. It is also possible for the image elements of the food to be assigned within the first 30 minutes or 40 minutes or within the first hour.

  • the image elements assigned to the item to be cooked are subjected to an evaluation to determine a ready time and / or a Surface expansion and / or a spatial expansion of the food to be cooked.

  • a minimum change over time and / or an initial value is defined as a function of the automatic program and / or the type of food being cooked.
  • a different minimum change in time may be necessary for pasta than for roasting so that image elements are assigned to the food to be cooked.

  • the picture elements which for example have a minimum change over time, are then assigned to the food to be cooked.
  • Image elements without a change or below a minimum change over time are assigned to the cooking area 11. Since the food to be cooked changes during preparation, but the surroundings show no changes at all or only very few changes, the recorded images can be used to differentiate very reliably between the food to be cooked and the cooking area 11.
  • the camera device 3 is designed, for example, as a thermal imaging camera or IR camera. In the process, thermal images are recorded which show temperature distributions in the cooking area 11. The individual image elements represent the temperatures in the cooking area 11 with spatial resolution.
  • the identification of the food to be cooked here makes it possible to record the temperature of the food alone, without using, for example, a very imprecise mean value over the entire field of view of the camera. When cooking, the food and the cooking area usually have very different temperatures.
  • Those picture elements which show characteristic changes during the cooking process are then assigned to the food to be cooked. For example, many foods brown the surface when they are heated. This results in a change in the emissivity, which can be taken from the thermal images and which can thus be used to identify the image elements belonging to the food to be cooked. In contrast, the emissivity of the cooking area does not change.
  • the camera device 3 captures a thermal image of the filled cooking space 21. This includes cooking space walls, food carriers and other components, as well as the food.
  • the IR camera sees the contents of the cooking space with the food, container, baking tray, grill grate, baking sheet holders, radiators, lamps, cooking space walls or general cooking accessories and cooking space accessories.
  • the IR camera records a first thermal image at the beginning of a cooking process and it is initially unknown in which pixels of the IR camera the temperature of the food is recorded. Where this is the case will only become apparent during cooking.
  • the different emissivity of the different materials in the thermal image of the IR camera, which determines the thermal radiation emitted by the object, results in a different temperature reading for each material.
  • the cooking process will start.
  • the cooking space temperature rises.
  • the IR camera continuously takes more thermal images.
  • the temperature measurement values increase in all pixels, more or less synchronously with the increase in temperature of the cooking space air.
  • the temperature in the thermal image of the IR camera rises for each object with different material properties or with a different emissivity to its own measured value for its holding temperature (in fact, all object temperatures in the cooking area are roughly the same, but the emissivity leads to different measured values in the thermal image of the IR camera). Only the temperature of the food remains at a different temperature level because it contains water that cannot be heated above around 100 ° C.
  • the mean values are "somewhere" depending on the emissivity of the objects.
  • the emissivity is a number between 0 and 1 (0% and 100%).
  • An object with emissivity 1 e.g. enamel
  • An object with emissivity 0.1 e.g. chrome-plated steel.
  • the output of the emitted thermal radiation increases sharply with the thermal radiation. If the output of the emitted thermal radiation changes from an object, this can be interpreted as a change in the object temperature or as a change in the object's emissivity.
  • the emissivity of the inorganic materials in the cooking chamber does not change or changes only insignificantly.
  • the temperature in the cooking space is in the holding phase and only fluctuates around its mean value with the control amplitude. This means that all cooking space and accessories fluctuate around their individual (radiation) temperatures in the thermal image of the IR camera. None changes further. All pixels in which this finding is present do not belong to the food to be cooked.
  • the effect arises from the fact that on the one hand the surface temperature after the surface has dried out and the associated browning rises above the holding value of the initial phase (where there was still water on the surface) and on the other hand the organic material of the food changes chemically and physically and thus in the Its emissivity is also in step. Both lead to a different measured value in the thermal image of the IR camera. Depending on the food and surface changes, the temperature change in the thermal image can go in one direction or the other. It is only important that something changes, although the cooking space itself is in a stationary state after its heating-up phase.
  • Another option for identifying the food to be cooked is to use a measuring probe to pierce the food in addition to the thermal imaging camera. The surface temperature of the food to be cooked is then determined by means of this measuring probe. Since the food to be cooked changes its color during the cooking process and, for example, is browned, there is a change in the emissivity of the food. Accordingly, there is a temperature difference between the temperature values of the measuring probe and the thermal image. Since the emissivity of the cooking area 11 does not change, no such temperature difference can be observed for its picture elements. It is thus possible to distinguish between the food and the cooking area 11 via this temperature difference.
  • Another implementation of this principle is to observe not the temperature difference but a tracking of the emissivity of the thermal imager. Since the emissivity of the food changes during preparation, the emissivity of the thermal imaging camera would have to be adjusted accordingly until its temperature readings match those of the measuring probe. Such tracking is not necessary for the cooking area 11, since its emissivity does not change. Reliable identification of the food to be cooked is thus also possible via the time deviation of the emissivity.
  • color information, brightness information and / or intensity information or other variables of the image processing can be evaluated to identify the picture elements that change over time.
  • the camera device 3 is designed, for example, to capture images in the visible and / or in the infrared range of light.
  • the picture elements are identified which show a change in one or more color values during the cooking process. These picture elements are then assigned in the food.
  • RGB color coordinates can be viewed for this purpose. It is also possible that color coordinates in the Lab color space (also referred to as L * a * b * color space or CIELAB) are considered.
  • the Lab display objects can be recognized particularly well that experience a change in brightness or color over time.
  • the picture elements which do not change in their brightness over time, are shown in white in the Lab display.
  • the image elements that come from an object that has been tanned over time are also displayed correspondingly darker.
  • baked goods made from light-colored dough can be reliably identified.
  • the component surfaces in the cooking area 11 do not experience any change in color and accordingly remain white in the Lab display. They can therefore be extracted very easily and reliably from further analysis. Even minor changes during baking are reliably detected.
  • the food can now be further observed, detached from the rest of the cooking area, and examined, for example, for an increase in browning.
  • the baking process can be ended.
  • the food to be cooked it can be a condition that the brightness must change by a certain amount in a defined time interval. Otherwise it is assumed that the picture element does not belong to the food. Another possibility is to only observe those picture elements that are already outside a minimal change window at a certain point in time during the cooking process. The picture elements with values within the change window are then assigned to the cooking area 11.
  • the picture elements can be restricted to a permissible start window. Image elements whose values lie outside the start window and show exotic colors, for example, are then sorted out or not assigned to the food to be cooked. If necessary, adapted start windows or adapted permissible start values can be provided for automatic programs or for foods or food groups (meat, baked goods, vegetables, etc.). For example, a different start window can be provided for a light dough than for a dark dough.
  • the time course of the color coordinates of the picture elements to be observed can be followed. If the picture elements run out of a corridor over time, which z. B. is spanned by the color coordinates Lab, the picture elements are discarded for further observation with regard to the browning.
  • the spatial corridor is generated dynamically during the ongoing cooking process, for example.
  • the corridor results z. B. from the trajectories of the remaining picture elements through the corresponding color space.
  • One possibility of forming a band for a permitted corridor is, for example, possible as follows.
  • a mean value and the standard deviation of the lightness (L) are calculated for each point in time.
  • the middle of the band results, for example, from the mean value.
  • the range is a fraction to a multiple of the standard deviation. In this way, outliers that are too dark or too bright can be eliminated from the set of picture elements or the set of pixels. If a track falls out of the band at any point in time, it is no longer used for the further calculation of the mean value and standard deviation. This prevents the standard deviation caused by the outliers from becoming larger and larger as the cooking time progresses and the permissible channel from becoming wider and wider.
  • Colored target windows can also be set for the color coordinates, for example at the time of completion. If you work through the color space with accompanying (color) channels from start to finish, the start window and finish window are already part of the observation and are already included in the channels. By looking at the progression over time with different browning speeds and different initial colors, the various components of a cake can be differentiated, for example.
  • an apple pie is to be prepared on a baking sheet, the apples brown much less slowly than the light batter.
  • the light-colored dough makes up a smaller proportion of the surface area of a cake densely covered with apples
  • the previously described method can be used to specifically identify the image elements that show a significant browning (dough).

Be like that identifies those image elements that only represent the light dough in a simple and reliable manner. The browning is only determined on these and not averaged integrally over a surface of unknown composition.
  • the camera device 3 can also be designed as a 3D camera so that spatial image information from the cooking area 11 can be recorded.
  • To identify the food to be cooked for example, the distance between the camera device 3 and the objects recorded in the cooking area 11 is detected in a spatially resolved manner. Since the components of the cooking area 11 that do not belong to the food to be cooked do not change their distance from the camera device 3 during the cooking process, they can be reliably identified by this. In contrast, when a food is heated, changes in shape and thus changes in distance occur.
