Abstract

A method for controlling a refrigerator performed by an artificial intelligence computing device may include photographing a food material stored inside of the refrigerator; comparing the photographed image with a preconfigured previous image, and transmitting storage information of the food material to a cloud according to a comparison result; learning the transmitted storage information of the food; determining a stock state of the food material based on the learned storage information of the food material; and determining whether to transmit relation information related to the food material depending on the determined stock state of the food material. One or more of the artificial intelligence computing device according to the present disclosure may be linked with an Artificial Intelligence module, a drone (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, UAV), a robot, an Augmented Reality (AR) device, a virtual reality (VR) device, a device related to 5G service, and the like.
