The not-yet-released Japanese app provides a calorie count of the food you’re eating by analyzing the shape and color of it via a photo and then comparing it to a database of 100,000 foods.
This type of application is notoriously hard to pull off due to the difficulties in creating a program that can accurately figure out what food you took a picture of.
