Smartchef Concept

Smartchef is one of the finalists at NextGen PC Design Competition that started in 2007, finishing this year, and is meant to become the best technology solution for people who spend considerable time in the kithen, their or at restaurants.
You wouldn’t have to be a Chef at the restaurant to need Smartchef because it comes with all the features that help improve your lifestyle, health and cooking skills. You’ll see it is a complete portable PC concept for this specific use and is able to transform even laziest people into expert cookers.



This computer concept has two parts: the mart cutting board of 13 x 20 x 3 inches on which you cut the ingredients and the portable tablet measuring 8 x 9 x 1 inches which you can carry with you wherever you go.
But let’s get to the most important part of the story – what you would use Smartchef for.
In the morning you and your life partner have a plan about what you could prepare for the Saturday dinner when you celebrate 2 years since your first date. You already made the invitations so you know that some of your guests are vegetarians. You’ll have to satisfy both sides.



Smartchef’s touch-sensitive tablet is ready to show you tens of recipes you can choose from and you like them all because you have selected them last night from its database on the Internet.
Now you have to choose again depending on a few factors like number of calories contained in the ingredients and maybe change some of them or mix more recipe versions to create the best foods for Saturday.



After this step you go to the market place to buy what you need to prepare the foods and Smartchef will be there with you to show you details about each vegetable or meat type you buy, even the country where it grows and what other vegetables it is related with. It knows that you are on diet for a month and can recommend you what to replace with what in order to create a delicious recipe that doesn’t affect your health, increase the cholesterol and disturb fat equilibrium.
Back in the kitchen now! Place the tablet on the cutting board and follow the cooking instructions step by step!



Ooops! The cutting board’s sensors detected that the chicken meant is too fat. Smartchef tablet displays the number of calories and other details and recommends you to remove the fat on the margins.
Now you’re done and you know also how a few food arrangements that look good to impress your guests.
Don’t worry about the desert if you don’t have enough free time to cook it before Saturday, because Smartchef will take care of it too. It connects wirelessly with the cooking machines and knows when to stop the heating in there and alert you to come and get it.



If you loved the foods don’t forget to share the recipes with the other friends over the Internet connectivity!
