Inspiration

Since the theme was summer, and I've been working out lately where eating is an important aspect, I thought of making a Calorie tracker with photos.

What it does

It's a web-based application where using yolov3 classifies foods and using the gov food data API, gets your macros and micros.

Challenges we ran into

CENTERING AN A TAG WITHIN A DIV, bruh. Aswell as loading an image file from the web into SQLite that's in Django

Accomplishments that we're proud of

CENTERED AN TAG WITHIN A DIV

What we learned

Image classification with Yolo using pre-trained weights. How to make a custom dataset using Yolo (didn't implement would take ages) That I should've used flask. Not to do your first hackathon in less than 4 hrs... sadge

What's next for KCalCam

If I do decide to work on it:

  • Make better UI
  • Make a custom data set using YOLO since its really fast
  • Add a way to track calories and save them maybe to localStorage or with account
  • And more
