Abstract
A control system for the temperature of food in a cooking pot is introduced. The cooking pot is heated on a consumer cooking hob. The temperature of the pot side is used as input for the controller. It is measured by an infrared detector. The infrared detector is a thermopile. The sensor signal is evaluated by a rule-based control algorithm. The system is simple, reliable, and very user friendly. An exact temperature settlement in a consumer hob is available for the first time. The system is used for automatic cooking
