A new microwave may soon be able to tell you the precise calorie count of food that goes inside. That's good news for health nuts who microwave a lot, though they are perhaps a small niche group. For micriwavers who aren't that into fitness, though it could be a bit unsettling. It might not be as easy to ignore as the panel on the back of that box of frozen processed food you're about to nuke.
GE has combined devices that use advanced sensor technology to estimate the fat content, water content, and weight of food in question in order to automatically calculate dietary calories.
Infact, automatic calorie estimation for foods actually consumed does not yet exist. The solution maybe to use advanced sensor technology to measure the actual meal that you eat, rather than relying on an archived database of values.To assess the three key dimensions for its estimates - fat content, water content and weight. This can be done because water and fat interact with microwaves very differently.
First, consumer goods manufacturers are looking at ways to combine sensors, connectivity and powerful server-side processing to deliver rapid, granular data to people on a routine basis. Everything around us is measurable, and creating devices that can automatically gather the data and send it on for processing, making it meaningful is rapidly becoming commonplace.
Second, "and more particularly, giving people accurate readings of the calories they're consuming as well as, with fitbit-type devices, what they're burning-is a big step toward real-time health management rather than disease detection,"GE explained.
Tastier meals, easier preparation, painless cleanup are all possibilities.
