  • Publication number: 20130092032
    Abstract: The technology disclosed herein relates to intelligent home/residential cooking appliances and interactive content that is interpretable to send instructions to such intelligent cooking appliances, as well as associated systems and/or methods for generating and/or processing the same. In certain instances, an intelligent home/residential appliance may receive and/or display the content for a user and, at appropriate times, possibly prompt a user to take actions or automatically take appropriate actions for the user. Such activities advantageously may prompt a user in some examples to more actively participate in, and/or interact with, a cooking show or program. A user therefore may be more immersed in a cooking experience and feel more comfortable trying out new recipes, given the expectation that the cooking appliance itself may help to resolve problems as they arise and/or suggest solutions to detected abnormalities.
