Cant wait to see it in action!

i have had daydreams of this type of device, or at least one that could identify raw ingredients you weigh and suggest a recipe based upon it; I realise you are approaching this from a different angle, but its certainly up the same street!

I started a Flickr group called 'I Ate This' in which members photograph & upload images of their meals, in that brief moment of personal triumph between cooking success and appetite satisfaction!

The group grew so fast that i started to envisage its use as a database for recipes and to that goal i asked members who had the time and enthusiasm to start adding at least the ingredients (to be used as Keywords) and hopefully a recipe to go with their image. The group, as with most organic projects(!) ,has now grown to a very useful size but way beyond my control...

However i still keep it in my backburner of projects so am very keen to see where this takes you & I shall certainly be trying out.

Good Luck!

Hi [mention:d74ef846e3224c7ebc82862d2f6e0542:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] ,

A clear and crisp yet descriptive update. Well done in that regards.

A more automated way to track calories/nutrition.

I’m excited to see how the above feature is implemented. Because I have to enter manually how much calories I take in, in health apps.

Are you going to link the weight measured in your scale to calories? If yes, hope you have checked this wonderful collection from [mention:2b7fa8584d4f4ff5a2f6927d33345744:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]
