Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a body defining a cooking cavity. A door is rotatably coupled to the body. An imager assembly is coupled to an interior surface of the door. The imager assembly includes an image sensor configured to obtain image data within a field of view, a first primary mirror positioned at a first angle proximate to the image sensor and within the field of view, and a second primary mirror positioned at a second angle proximate to the image sensor and within the field of view. A secondary mirror assembly includes multiple secondary mirrors coupled to the body within the cooking cavity. The secondary mirrors reflect image views within the cooking cavity to the first primary mirror and the second primary mirror which reflects the image views to the image sensor to be captured as the image data.

Abstract: A method for processing images of an appliance includes capturing, via an imaging device, an image of a cavity of the appliance. The method further includes identifying a support member in the cavity based on the image via a processor in communication with the imaging device. The support member is configured to support an object thereon. The method further includes calculating a histogram of gradients based on the image via the processor. The method further includes receiving dimensional data of the appliance. The method further includes comparing the histogram of gradients to the dimensional data. The method further includes determining a position of the support member based on the comparison of the histogram of gradients to the dimensional data.
