Abstract
The nutrition has an important role in the prevention of several critical disease. In order to evaluate the eating habits of the modern Italian society, the authors have thought to design an innovative system called “Smart Shelve”. This is a robotic structure integrable with various appliances, such as refrigerators, which allows to receive and deliver several types of foods in order to control their daily consump- tion. Smart shelve has external optical sensors for the food recognition, while right inside it is composed of several food compartments which are equipped with load cells to measure the weight of each type of food. Every week the system is able to send the acquired food consumption information to the cloud in order to provide statistical services regarding the nutrition style of each Italian region. The system is also capable to warn the users who have recently conducted a malnutrition styleI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
