I think feedback data will help us live much healthier lives all around. Especially when it comes to food and exercise.
I love that the companion app for this device uses image recognition to estimate how many calories are in your meals - similar to Meal Snap [$2.99 - iTunes Link].
“Jawbone is well-known for its stylish Bluetooth headsets, but the company’s forthcoming Jawbone Up is designed for a completely different task — tracking your activity, sleeping, and eating activities.
Packaged in an attractive wristband that comes in a range of bright colors, the Up is loaded with sensors and communicates with a companion app on your iPhone or Android phone. For food intake, it’s expected that the app will use a photo-based technology like that built into the PhotoCalorie app — take a photo of your food and the calories are estimated.”
