A Survey on Intelligent Refrigerator Using Artificial Intelligence

The task to discover useful systems (electronic home appliances) to simplify our live, is one of the main purpose of intelligent systems. Intelligent appliances with multimedia capability have been emerging into our daily life. Thanks to the fast advance of computing technology. Kitchen is one of the places where such intelligent appliances have used. At the same time it has been a practice for all of us to use the junk foods, or too old vegetables and fruits in our daily life due to the busy scheduled life that we lead. Or some possibilities where we do not remember the vegetables/fruits we have not been eating for a long time. This in turn leads to lack of nutrition or, some hazardous infections or might disturb the power in each of us. Why don't we come across an attempt to have a device to indicate what we have (food/vegetables/fruits) and how old is it. Of course it is not possible for us to determine the exact age of the vegetable, since it is to be calculated from the day it is grown, but yet we could come across one small effort to at-least have an eye on how old is the vegetable from the day it was fetched from the vendor. Existing systems used barcode or RFID(Radio Frequency Identifier) scanning to keep track of the stock. The Intelligent Refrigerator module is designed to convert any existing refrigerator into an intelligent cost effective appliance using ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. The intelligent refrigerator is capable of sensing and monitoring its contents and counts the age of the contents. The smart refrigerator is also able to remotely notify the user about old products via SMS (Short Message Service).Additional functionality includes indication of items we have not been eating for long time.
