Obesity Problems 30% of U.S. adults (20 years or older) are obese ◦ 60 million people 65% of U.S. adults are considered overweight 16% of children/teens (ages 6 – 19) are overweight ◦ 9 million people Estimated annual cost of obesity in the USA in 1998 was $78.5 billion, 2000 was $117 billion According to the CDC, the main cause is poor eating and exercise habits

UC San Diego 2006-07 Wireless food intake systems Mobile phone application that allows users to monitor their caloric balance Monitors The number of kilocalories eaten and burned during the course of a day Limitation The selection of foods is manual Not all food items are listed The user should estimate number of kilocalories ( Loss of accuracy) Example
7
Monitors caloric balance in real time ◦ User input : i) Barcode Scan ii) Manual Keyboard Entry ◦ Connects with various DBs ◦ Provide ingredient lists and nutritional information ◦ If food choices are inconsistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, Give reminders Ex) you are 50% over your daily energy density intake goal Nutrition Monitor Project
8
Three different versions of this application ◦ Nokia N95 Symbian OS ◦ HP iPAQ hw6945 Windows Mobile ◦ Google G1 Phone Android

Symbian OS
14
Windows Mobile OS
15
Differences from Symbian OS version’ ◦ Items are not separated into meals ◦ An allergy feature was added The nutritional information includes a warning messages Ex) If a user has a nut allergy, it provides immediate way to see whether a product would set of any allergic responses
16
Increase to three modes ◦ Eating Mode ◦ Shopping Mode ◦ Report Mode
17
Eating Mode ◦ Product Scan Scan the UPC barcode Add an item to user’s list ◦ The common list of food A list of items that the user consumes frequently The system asks to select items from the common list It help the management of a daily food list even easier
18
Shopping Mode ◦ Provide same options as the previous mode ◦ After pushing “ADD” button A view shows the sum of the nutrition facts of the shopping basket Outputs warnings on the high-level amounts of some of the factors (Ex. Calories and Fat)
19
Report Mode ◦ Record the daily food intake or the shopping basket ◦ Provide a comprehensive report about the food consumption
20
We propose ◦ A handheld system that is constantly with the user ◦ A (mostly) automatic and accurate way to enter names of foods ◦ A method to track user consumption and trends over time ◦ A system that can be programmed to warn the user against unhealthy food choices
21
Support non-UPC food ◦ Ex) processed fruits and vegetable Able to enter any dietary restrictions ◦ More than nuts
