- Touch Screen Monitor That works with linux: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BBLFOY4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
- Microphone \ Speakers
- Keyboard and mouse for initial setup
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/
Ideal Software
Android
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?
