What's more, it can operate in resource-constrained environments like a sensor or light-weight computer like a Rasberry Pi.
If the driver has lost or gained weight, the computer can automatically adjust the menu suggestions.
Height, weight and computer use were also measured.
To ascertain whether the general model of intake regulation can produce predicted outcomes that parallel observed changes in intake and body weight, a computer simulation was implemented.
And no matter what the weight, the computers tell the pilots what the minimum safe air speed is, automatically taking into account flap position and other factors.
It's a big, brightly-lit room with banks of desks creaking under the weight of computers, a carefully marked floor and scores of special cameras on the walls to register the mocap balls which were Velcroed to my every joint.
Then there are the newer machines, using up farm-sized patches of floor space, involving hundreds of pounds of weights and computer electronics, all to develop specialized muscles that you'd otherwise probably never use unless you had to milk cows floating in outer space or something.
All we have to do is enter the height and weight, and the computer does the calculations for us.
Scales like one made by Withings will log your weight on your computer and notify your friends (if you want).
In the wake of the recent discovery that millions of people who carry a specific genetic variation are more likely to gain weight, Mike DeWolfe, a computer programmer who considers himself overweight, cannot help wondering if he is one of them.
