Smart Kitchen is a project that addresses the need for anyone who needs to eat--which is all of us! Throughout this project, we are exploring what it would be like to know what is in your fridge all the time with little to no effort. Then after knowing the ingredients is in your kitchen, being able take those ingredients and suggest new and healthy recipes to try. To do this we are utilizing image recognition technology to scan food items and bar codes. | |||

Smart Kitchen is a project that attempts to help people answer the question "What's for dinner?" in such a way that optimizes ingredients on hand, reduces food wasteage, and offers recipes (eventually) tailored to the user's time, skill, dietary requirements, allergies, likes/dislikes, etc. | Smart Kitchen is a project that attempts to help people answer the question "What's for dinner?" in such a way that optimizes ingredients on hand, reduces food wasteage, and offers recipes (eventually) tailored to the user's time, skill, dietary requirements, allergies, likes/dislikes, etc. | ||
===Problem Hypothesis=== | |||
We believe that there are '''people who are responsible for creating or managing meals for 2+ members of their household''' | |||
<br>… who have difficulties '''coming up with ways to combine their existing kitchen inventory for a proper meal''' because | |||
<br> …they want to '''sit down as a family and eat a proper dinner together.''' | |||
<br>We will know this to be true when we '''see evidence from the research study.''' | |||
===Product Hypothesis=== | |||
We believe that '''people who are responsible for creating or managing meals for 2+ members of their household''' | |||
<br> … are currently addressing it through '''eating out, and eating frozen meals and cooking the same thing repeatedly''' | |||
<br> By building the '''SmartKitchen service that provides meal options based on existing food inventory''' | |||
<br>…we will '''provide more options for meals and therefore making it easier for people to have more family dinners.''' | |||
<br>We will know this to be true when '''we see feedback from users from a prototype indicating it was helpful.''' | |||
===Initial Prototype=== | |||
For the initial prototype of the Smart Kitchen project, the goals are the following: | For the initial prototype of the Smart Kitchen project, the goals are the following: | ||
