is already a "multifunction" powerhouse. Adding an "Adaptive Humidity" setting would allow it to compete with high-end smart ovens—like those from GE Profile —which use AI and cameras to achieve similar precision. It simplifies professional techniques for home cooks, turning a standard convection cycle into a "smart" baking assistant.
Small, high-temperature humidity sensors (hygrometers) inside the cavity detect steam buildup.
For the multifunction oven, a highly impactful new feature would be an "Adaptive Humidity Crisp" mode.
This feature would use internal sensors to monitor the moisture levels released by food during the cooking process. Instead of just maintaining a set temperature, the oven would actively manage the internal atmosphere to achieve specific textures.
