Food Friend
Autonomous and easy-to-use tool for monitoring of personal food intake and personalised feedback
Project description
The goal of the Food Friend project is to develop a complete toolset, consisting of hardware, software and methodologies, that can automatically measure a person's food intake with a minimum of required user input and turn it into personalised and actionable feedback. The system can be used by care professionals, research institutions, caterers or home users to get a better overview of a person's dietary behaviour.
