The Future Of Cooking
August 28, 2012 in Daily Bulletin
Evgeny Morozov reviewed some of the food preparation technologies that are being developed:
- A computer scientist has developed a set of video cameras that can distinguish between different items. If the chef has made a mistake or has otherwise deviated from the original recipe an alarm can sound.
- Another system uses projectors to provide an augmented reality cooking experience. If it’s time to chop the onions then a virtual mark will appear on the onion telling you where to chop.
- However these technologies would subtract from, rather than enhance, the cooking experience. In reality cooking is all about experimenting and making mistakes.
