The
technology is emerging in every field of life and it is taking more space in
every aspect of life with its great innovation and features. The technologies
are of many kinds and every technology has its own benefits. There are
different technologies changing the world with their innovation like Internet
of Things, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, wearable internet, digital
health, computing unique capabilities, and big data. For this research project,
I have chosen Internet of Things (IoT) as my research topic to explore that how
IoT is changing the way things are being managed in professional or personal space
(Montresor, 2016)
I
have selected this technology, because I have very much interested in it, and I
found it more exciting technologies to look at. The people are able to
communicate with devices, apps, software, and many more things with the help of
IoT. So, I have a proposed idea of a “Cooking Management App”. This app will be
used to get customized cooking dishes, ideas and recipes, but the most interesting
part will be to allow users to get an idea for cooking anything with available ingredients.
The user will enter number or type of ingredients available, and app will
suggest a recipe or dish on the basis of those available ingredients. This idea
is going to be useful for everyday busy routine of people specially women, who
have to look for some suggestions that what they should cook with available ingredients
in the kitchen. This app will be great to get quick ideas and recipes on the
choices as well as availability of food items.
2. Related Work of The Emergence of Technology in
Every Field of Life
The proposed idea of a “Cooking App”
is not totally a new one, as hundreds of apps already available on different
platforms for the smart phone users. People can access these apps from their smart
phones free or paid, and get hundreds of recipes, cooking videos and ideas for
their daily routine. The people can search range of recipes on these apps. Like
if someone is fond of only vegetarian recipes, and then he/she can love to use
a paid app named “Green Kitchen”. This app is filled with best veggie recipes,
and people can use it to cook vegetarian dishes. If someone is interested in
plant based and whole foods dishes, then “Forks Over Knives” is the best app
for them (Dredge, 2016). These apps and their features show
that lots of work has already been done, which is relevant with my Cooking App
idea.
2.1 Research Application of The Emergence of Technology in
Every Field of Life
In the above discussion, it has been
reviewed that various cooking apps are available, which helping people with the
support of technology are named IoT. These cooking apps have many features and
many interesting things for people to use. But the “Cooking Management App’,
which I want to develop is bit different and innovative then other cooking
apps. My App will also have many mixed features from these Apps, like I would
include recipes for different regions of the world like Asian, Chinese, Japanese,
and American Cuisine etc. The hundreds of recipes with relevant videos and
pictures will be available. But the most innovative idea of my app, which will
add more value to the cooking apps, is that a user will enter for instance
he/she ahs 6 ingredients available in the kitchen, and don’t know what to cook.
The user will enter those six ingredients in the app, and ask for suggestion,
and app will come up with one or more than one dishes on the basis of entered ingredients.
This is how users will get ideas that what they can cook with available ingredients.
2.2 The possible opportunity for a
spin-off using the proposed idea
My idea is bit different and unique
from many other cooking apps, so it certainly has an opportunity to be launched
alone with its own name and recognition, or I can also look for spin-off
opportunities as well. For instance, I can look for famous paid cooking apps,
and ask them to buy shares in my app, and launch it together with their
existing paid app idea. I am quite hopeful that my app will get a good response
from the owners of paid apps, as this app is going to be unique with the
features proposed by my “Cooking Management App”.
3. Discussion and Conclusion
of The Emergence of
Technology in Every Field of Life
It can be concluded after reviewing
the emergence of technology in every field of life that involvement of
technology is going to increase with the passage of time, and no one can stop
the storm of technological revolution making impact on personal and professional
lives. Different kind of apps and technologies are helping people to live
smarter life in their daily routine. One of the ideas in this regard is cooking
applications available for smart phone users. All other cooking apps have same
kind of features, but my proposed “Cooking Management App” is different and
more innovative than other apps. It will certainly have traditional features of
cooking apps, but it will help users to get cooking ideas and recipes on the
basis of available ingredients.
