This study presents a smart cooking assistant system to support cooking by utilizing augmented reality (AR) technology. The homemade cooking after working for long hours in weekdays has become big burdens for busy people such as working persons, students, and nurturing parents. Because the homemade cooking usually needs several processes such as a menu selection, a purchase of ingredients for the dishes, and their cooking, it becomes very hard to take enough time to complete them for dinners in weekdays.
As a result, busy people may rely on eating in restaurants or buying processed or frozen foods, although they cost more.
The objective is to educate youngsters to start home cooking using smart cooking assistant in their smartphone called WAN Cook. WAN Cook uses all multimedia elements such as pictures, videos, and Augmented Reality (AR) to enhance and encourage users to start cooking with simple recipes while learning basic cooking skills.
