Food consumption analysis system Food consumption analysis system

Food loss has a financial, health and environmental impact. This application measuring food consumption aims to inspire care centers, hospitals, schools and businesses to explore strategies that on one hand improve nutritional intake and encourage to meet the nutritional needs, and on the other hand reduce food losses.

The measurement setup was built with 2 cameras: a 3D camera (Photoneo Phoxi) and a RBG camera (Allied Vision Manta), a measurement scale (Ohaus Scout SKX 8201) and a PC (Intel Nuc) with touch screen. A specific software program was developed for the acquisition of sensor data, the registration of meal components, the calculation of the nutritional components of the meals and the integration of data into a database (SQL)
