 VIRTUAL COOK APPLICATION

1.1 Introduction and Motivation

We propose to build a application project that can efficiently handle and manage
various activities. This project virtual cook application is to cook the variety foods
in homes and will advise the recipe for cooking food.
With this project virtual cook application, you may prepare a variety of cuisines in
your house and get recipe recommendations without having to know what ingredients
to use.
Actually, it will ask the user what items they have on hand before suggesting a
cuisine that can be prepared with those ingredients alone, rather than forcing the
user to search quickly for other ingredients .
Because a user can get to know a related cooking recipe instantly. Generally,
whoever it may be who with to prepare food check the ingredients before preparing
scene dish and runs to grocery shop to get missing ingredients for preparing the dish.
This software is perfect for those times when you want to make a delicious meal but
have limited ingredients.

1.2 Existing System

Generally, Whoever it may be (Housewife or Student) who wish to prepare food

check the ingredients before preparing some dish and to grocery shop to get missing
ingredients for preparing the dish. To purchase additional ingredients makes expen-
sive and does not give them chances or ideas to taste the new variety of dishes.

1.3 Problem Statement

In this project, we will develop an android application where user can prepare foods
with ingredients which are available at home and he can try varieties even if he
doesn’t know what so include in the good. Our android applications gets input his
ingredients and display all the varieties of food that he can prepare from them.

1.4 Objective

This application will advise the recipe for cooking food.In fact, a users will first ask
the about the available ingredients and will come up with a dish that he can be
made with those ingredients on its own, so that the user won’t have to reach for

other activities. It help users to prepare different delicious recipes in easy steps.
The user can make the items by simply following the instructions provided by the
application. There are many tutorials provided in the applications to learn the cook-
ing dishes.

1.5 Proposed System

In this project, we will develop an android application where user can prepare foods
with ingredients which are available at home and he can try varieties even if he
doesn’t know what so include in the good. Our android applications gets input his
ingredients and display all the varietiesof food that he can prepare from them.

tomi,Christian sandor, Hirokazu Kato, et al.,Design of Assistive Tabletop
Projector-camera System for the Elderly with cognitive and motor skill
Impairments vol.5, no.2,pp.57-66,2017.

Projector-camera (pro-cam) systems have a potential to become popular and af-

fordable as they can create interactive surfaces for example on tabletops,wall house-
hold items or on a palm of a hand. The possibility that these systems will be used
at homes in the future is increasing. The elderly living alone at home often need
assistance in their daily tasks as the likelihood of cognitive and motor skill related
impairments increases with age.Pro-Cam systems could be used for guidance due to
easy to manipulate large interaction surfaces,but research can its suitability for elderly
users is scarcee. Our research focus is can elderly users and examining their character-
istics as potential users of pro-cam systems and the implications for interactive design.

In this paper, we propose a virtual agent for a cooking navigation system which use
the ubiquitous sensors.The cooking navigation system can recognize the progress of
cooking and can show appropriate contents suitable to the situation. Most cooking
navigation system of cooking is applicable to realize a virtual agent which can perform
helpful actions suitable to the users behaviour. We implemented the virtual agent
and demonstrated the cooking navigation system including the agent.

We describe a prototype system that combines the overlaid 3D graphics of augmented
reality with the untethered freedom of mobile computing. The goal is to explore how
these two technologies might together make possible wearable computer systems that
can support users in their everyday interactions with the world. We provide an illus-
trated explanation of how our prototype is used, and describe our rationale behind
designing its software infrastructure and selecting the software on which it runs.

2.2 Research Gap Analysis

For this study, a virtual cook application topic was choosen. A virtual cook ap-
plication is allows to conduct a study of different different cooking recipes with the
available ingredients. In the current era of gadget technology innovations have been
created to help people gather and search for the recipes they want including a mobile
based app like Cookpad that features to search for recipes based on the name desired
by the user.The research we did here is to build a mobile app that has a feature to
search for recipes based on material owned by the user. In this application will look
a recipes that have the material most similar to the material owned by the user.In
this research, we also had been reading behaviours performed by the user by reading
behaviours performed by the user by recording all activity of what is being done in
a logcut. From this results of the analysis will be seen the most frequently used food
by some people.In this research, the user log in though and in the analysis to produce
a certain information presentation which will be useful for the development of the
application and also provide benefits to the user user of the application.

5.1 Implementation

Overview of Flutter:
Flutter is a framework for cross-platform applications. Flutter is an open-source
software development kit which enables smooth and easy cross-platform mobile app
development. You can build high quality natively compiled apps for iOS and Android
quickly, without having to write the code for the two apps separately. Flutter uses
the open-source programming language Dart, which was also developed by Google.
Dart is optimized for building UIs, and many of Dart’s strengths are used in Flutter.

Figure 5.1: Flutter Overview

Why we use Flutter:

In our project, we are using flutter technology to build the project. We are selected
flutter because it cross platform framework means using flutter we can develop ap-
plications for multiple platforms with the same line of code.
In this project we are using flutter as a frontend technology to create an user interface
and dart for logic. We are use firebase as a backend technology firebase supports real
time database.

Life Cycle of Flutter:

Figure 5.2: Life Cycle of Flutter

Flutter basic concepts:

Fast Development with Flutter
Flutter has hot-reload technology. And this helps developers to quickly and easily
implement new features, build complex UIs, and test it in seconds. Hot-reload allows
developers to make some changes in code, for example, change the word of some text
label, then these updates automatically deployed to the running app and Flutter just
repaints everything on the screen. That takes up to a few seconds. Another thing that
allows developers to build applications really fast is the rich set of fully-customizable
widgets based on Material Design and Cupertino designs.

Performance of Flutter apps

Flutter doesn’t require any additional bridges to work on different devices and it’s
not like other WebView based frameworks. Flutter has its own technology to
compile codebase directly to machine code. Flutter’s widgets incorporate all critical
platform differences such as scrolling, navigation, icons, and other
platform-dependent things. So, the Flexible compiler technology lets us run Dart
code in different ways, depending on your target platform. Flutter uses one compiler
for targeting mobile devices, desktop, or server. And for Web, it uses a different
compiler. This approach for compiling to native machine code allows flutter apps to
run as performant as it possibly could. This is a huge plus.

Low-cost development of flutter apps

As you already know, flutter helps developers to quickly and easily implement UI, it
has great performance and it uses a single codebase for building Android, iPhone
apps, and now even Web and desktop apps. These things altogether drastically
reduce the time needed to build apps and test them on different platforms. This
means that it costs much much less in terms of money and time to test an idea,
create an MVP, or a complete app for different platforms.
