Week 1 (May 25th):

Objective:

-Similar to MyFitnessPal but detects food rather than manually inputting

-Detect image of food and determine number of calories and any other information from the food image

-Keep a track of the person’s daily calorie consumption based on the food images they scan and output recommendations based on the preferences they inputted (weight, age, fitness goals) and their food choices.

Current Progress:

-We have been learning about Machine Learning and CNN’s (Convolutional Neural Networks)

-Playing around with OpenCV to detect objects

-Downloaded TensorFlow and learning how to use to to develop and train the CNN

Next Week Plan:

-Create a UI for our app

-Use our OpenCV library to detect an object in an image

-Figure out how to use to develop a CNN

-Collaborate with the activity reminders group to create a joint health application
