This document proposes a food calorie and nutrition measurement system that uses images taken by mobile device cameras to measure consumption and manage daily food intake. It analyzes food photos before and after eating using nutritional databases and image processing. The system aims to improve current manual calorie counting methods. It requires a PC with at least 2GB RAM and 100GB HDD along with MATLAB software and toolboxes to implement image and signal processing algorithms. The project will be developed over three reviews, first surveying existing methods, explaining the design, and enhancing the base paper. It will then implement 40% of the base paper in the second review and the remaining 60% with modifications in the third review.

Title: Measuring Calorie and Nutrition From Food
Image
Abstract—As people across the globe are becoming moreinterested in watching
their weight, eating more healthy, andavoiding obesity, a system that can measure
calories and nutrition in every day meals can be very useful. In this paper, we
propose a food calorie and nutrition measurement system that can help patients and
dietitians to measure and manage daily food intake. Our system is built on food
image processing and uses nutritional fact tables. Recently, there has been an
increase in the usage of personal mobile technology such as smartphones or tablets,
which users carry with them practically all the time. Via a special calibration
technique, our system uses the built-in camera of such mobile devices and records
a photo of the food before and after eating it to measure the consumption of calorie
and nutrient components. Our results show that the accuracy of our system is
acceptable and it will greatly improve and facilitate current manual calorie
measurement techniques.
