Developing a Real-Time System for Measuring the Consumption of Seasoning

In this paper, we propose a real-time system for measuring the consumption of various types of seasonings. In our system, all seasonings are placed on a scale, and we continuously take images of these items using a camera. Our system estimates the consumption of each condiment by calculating the difference between the weight when the seasoning was picked up and the weight when it was placed back on the scale. Our system identifies the type of seasoning that was used by determining whether or not the seasoning was present on the scale. By using our system, users can automatically log their usage of seasoning. Then, they can adjust the seasoning according to their desired taste.
