  2. PSSC’s • An ability measure internal temperature of two separate points in the meat and the temperature inside the roaster using RTD sensors. • An ability to control the temperature inside the cooker by modifying gas flow using a clock signal to operate a stepper motor controlled needle valve. • An ability store and load cooking profiles from memory. • An ability to automatically ignite and detect whether a flame is present. • An ability to wirelessly communicate temperature information to a remote display device.

  3. Patent Liability and AnalysisCompeting Products • LG Thing Automated Oven - http://engt.co/fvjvKF • Automated appliances that allow for remote communication. • Support both WiFi and ZigBee for wireless communication both at and away from home. • The Chef Stir Pan - http://bit.ly/GRIfbe • Programmable cooker that allows for “set and forget” cooking. • Allows for automated control of temperature given a target temperature. • Induction Cooker - http://bit.ly/HhagJd • Automated cooking based on induction heating. • Provides rapid electronic heating with user controllable temperatures and cooking profiles.

  4. Our Viewpoint • Our product is somewhat unique in its design. While LG has created a very similar product, they are still in the production phase and are not available for retail as of today. • There are many examples of automated cookers out there, however there are few that allow control and monitoring via a remote user interface. • Countless patents exist for automated cooking and control of temperature. • US4289064 (automated sandwich cooker), US6112645 (automated cooking machine), US4195558 (fuel control), US3635018 (flame detection)

  5. Our Goals • Create a usable and reliable product that is also cheap and affordable to everyone. • Eliminate things that aren’t extremely pertinent to our design (such as monitoring away from home) • Use readily available parts, and keep the design to a minimum to reduce the cost. • Work as a completely standalone solution not requiring the use of other devices to interface with (OOBE). • Eliminating control via a smartphone device so that the user isn’t required to have a phone to control the cooker. • Don’t require the remote to be able to control and interface with the cooker. • Make the use of the remote completely a convenience factor and not a necessity for operation. • Be as energy and fuel efficient as possible. • Program the remote to be an “intermittent responder” so battery consumption only spikes once every so often, allowing for a 90% “off” state if using a 10 second interval to check for data.
