Nutritional Feedback and Health Impact Smartphone App
- 总结
- Researchers from Purdue University and Curtin University, Perth, Australia, have developed a technology to help the health-conscious better gauge the size and nutritional content of the food on their plates by using a cell phone camera. This technology goes a step further because it is based on strong scientific grounding. This software integrates various image-processing technologies to evaluate the photos, which results in better food identification and serving size. A nutritional knowledge base is used to evaluate the food and determine the possible impacts on health.
