Abstract: Provided is a cooking apparatus including: an induction heating coil that generates a magnetic field heating a cooking container; and an image generating unit that radiates light so that an image is generated on a surface of the cooking container, wherein the image generating unit includes: a plurality of light sources that radiate light toward the cooking container; a light source driving circuit that provides driving currents to the plurality of light sources; and a light-emitting controller that controls the light source driving circuit.

Abstract: An induction heating cooker including reinforced heat resistant glass on which a cooking vessel is placed, an induction coil unit located under the reinforced heat resistant glass and configured to generate a magnetic field, a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) provided radially outside and vertically below the induction coil unit while being spaced apart from each other along a circumferential direction of the induction coil unit, a plurality of convex lenses provided on front surfaces of the plurality of LEDs, respectively, a light blocking film provided on a lower surface of the reinforced heat resistant glass, and a slit formed in the light blocking film and allowing light radiated from the plurality of LEDs to pass therethrough, so that light radiated from the LEDs are slantingly projected to form an image of flame, which looks real, on a lower end portion of a side surface of the cooking vessel.
