Overview

Goal is to create a kitchen computer for displaying recipes.

Hardware

Stretch Goal Hardware

  • Wifi Camera pointing down over oven range
  • Heat Tolerant Camera for inside of oven (not sure how this would work, can't be wifi cause of faraday cage aspects of oven)

Operating System Candidates

  • LineageOS (Android): https://konstakang.com/devices/rpi4/LineageOS16.0/
    • Note, do not follow instructions telling you to wipe after installing gapps. This will cause the lineageOS to startup in a mode that pops up the unregistered device notification that can't be closed, preventing you from getting to terminal and running the command to retrieve the GSFAID.
  • Raspian

Ideal Software

Android

After Action: Apps did not run ideally, Some would come up in portrait mode and could not be changed. Some would continuously crash. If I were to come back to running android on a touchscreen, I would get a USBC dock and a phone that supports USB OTG and use that as the hardware instead of a raspberry Pi.

Cooking Apps

  • https://www.sidechef.com/
  • Allrecipes
    • This application has been crashing when scrolling to bottom with mouse. Need to test with touch screen to see if crash occurs.
  • Flavorly: This is the application installed on the GE Kitchen Hub

Experience Improvement

  • Some kind of split screen functionality. Currently apps have to support this, but maybe there's another way?

Raspbian

Usability

  • Install Matchbox-Keyboard
    • On Rasbpian Desktop Toolbar, add keyboard application


Commercial Products

Products that offer similar experiences

  • GE Kitchen Hub (available for kitcen hood and microwave). Expensive, over $800
