This work-in-progress paper describes our project SMARTKITCHEN, an interdisciplinary research project focusing on interactive display deployment in the kitchen - in particular around the cooking area. By applying a user-centered design approach the project aims to examine how screen-based interactive digital media can be accessed naturally in a constrained environment during the cooking process using multimodal interaction. Our main focus is on exploring new directions of supporting social and emotional aspects of the cooking experience. In this work-in-progress paper, we provide an overview on research directions, envisioned use-cases, and used technologies.
