The new artificial intelligence (AI)-based Healthify app developed by scientists in India can determine the calorie count of a meal based on a photo. In this respect reports Daily mail.
Tushar Vashisht, founder and CEO of the company that developed the application, said that the application can recognize more than a million food items from a single photo. Artificial intelligence algorithms can also determine portion sizes. In addition, the program can distinguish different types of complex multi-ingredient dishes, such as salads. It is stated that the Healthify application calculates the calorie content of a particular meal with approximately 90% accuracy.
Healthify also learns as it is used by a particular user. It tracks and remembers a person’s eating habits to make more accurate calculations in the future.
Calorie counting is not the only function available in the app. Those looking to lose weight, reduce stress, or improve their sleep can get AI-powered recommendations that recommend foods that meet their needs. The application can now be used for free. In January 2024, a monthly subscription will cost about £ 15 (about 1,700 rubles).
It was noted that according to the standards set by the British Ministry of Health (NHS) to lose weight, women are recommended to reduce their calorie intake to 1,400 calories and men to 1,900 calories. NHS experts also recommend eating more vegetables and fruits. .
