Abstract: A boil detection and prevention system and method for a cooking appliance is described. The system includes a contactless temperature sensor for detecting a temperature of liquid cooking in a utensil on the appliance and a time of flight sensor for detecting a level of the liquid as accommodated within the utensil. A rate of change of the liquid level is determined and a boil profile is formed based upon the liquid temperature, liquid level and rate of change of the liquid level. Assistance with cooking may also be provided along with prevention of certain boil conditions or profiles.

Abstract: A utensil profile determination system and method for determining a profile of a utensil used for cooking liquids and foodstuff on a heating element of a cooktop surface are disclosed. Particular distances are determined and considered in forming the profiles, the distances relating to a cooktop surface, heating element, utensil and sensor. The utensil profile may include whether the utensil is present or absent, vertical movement and direction of the vertical movement, and Dry Pot. Certain remedial measures may be implemented as a result of particular utensil profile determinations.
