A multimodal digital assistant for a smart food processor

As Artificial intelligence (AI) becomes ubiquitous, it becomes an indispensable part of our work and lives in many ways. One such important area of application is AI-based digital assistants. They are now becoming available in large numbers and a wide range of usage scenarios. The design-science paradigm has its roots in engineering and computer science. It is fundamentally a problem-solving paradigm. The design science paradigm has been used to create a solution for four questions concerning rethinking the user interaction process of home appliances:
- Can we speed up the setting process by telling the appliance what we need and want?
- How can we easily configure the user settings instead of reading manuals and complicated menus?
- How can we find relevant functions quickly?
- How can we interact with the UI manually and via voice command?
