Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3490338A1] There is provided an induction cooker (5), a controller (70) and a method for controlling the induction cooker (5). The induction cooker (5) has an induction cooking coil (10, 15, 20, 25) mounted upon and movable by a mechanical system (75, 80, 85, 90) within a predetermined region beneath a cooking surface (30) of the cooker (5). The cooker (5) comprises a plurality of sensors (50), each positioned to sense the presence of a cooking vessel when placed at a respective position upon the cooking surface (30). A controller (70) is configured: to receive from any of the plurality of sensors (50) an indication of the presence of a cooking vessel at a respective position of the sensor (50); to determine from the received indications a position of the cooking vessel upon the cooking surface (30); and to control the mechanical system (75, 80, 85, 90) to move the induction cooking coil (10, 15, 20, 25) to a position beneath the cooking surface (30) corresponding to the determined position of the cooking vessel.
