Inspiration

Inspired by the health category, we wanted to make a product that students can easily use to find out the nutritional value of every serving they eat.

What it does

Our application allows the user to log in & upload an image of any food, with which it will scan to find out what the item is. Once it has scanned, you have the option to give the model a different answer if it is wrong, or proceed to give the model a serving size. With these, the model will calculate the nutritional facts of your item. Users are also capable of clicking into different RIT links to get to Tiger Spend, as well as multiple dining locations, menus, and hours.

How we built it

Our backend developer trained our API while our two frontend developers made the website using html, css, and scss.

Challenges we ran into

We had to learn most things from scratch, which was a struggle. The biggest challenge though, was properly training our API to make sure its confidence level was high when deciding what food item the user gives it.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're first and foremost proud of getting this far, but a big accomplishment was the finished training of our API, with its confidence level being much higher than what we started with.

What we learned

We learned a lot about many different languages that we either have not used before, or have very little experience with.

What's next for Tiger Health

We hope in the future to make the application more functional than it is now, as it is just a prototype.
