This proposal is in response to PA-07-436 """"""""Bioengineering Approaches to Energy Balance and Obesity (STTR [R41/R42])"""""""". In this project we will assess a wrist-worn """"""""bite counter"""""""" for monitoring food intake. Specifically, we will evaluate the device across different foods, liquids, utensils and containers to measure its utility for monitoring eating. We will create a bite database that systematically measures the accuracy of the device. If validated, the device could provide a novel measure for empowering an individual to measure how much he or she eats over the long term.
