  • Publication number: 20220000331
    Abstract: The automatic cookware cleaning apparatus, covered in the present invention, personalizes cookware cleaning and drying operations, reducing energy consumption and water wastage. Cleaning method, plan, duration and intensity, among other parameters, can be optimized considering variables such as the cookware geometry, materials, amount and type of dirt. Moreover, assigning an ID of the cookware combined with a computer vision, which determines the amount and type of residue on the cookware and identifies its properties, enables utilization of the cleaning and drying process parameters. Nevertheless, the cleaning and drying process is utilized when the apparatus is combined with an automated cooking system and dish cooking parameters, such as ingredients and heating regime, are analyzed.
