Fluid-filled personal scale responsive to temperature and pressure

Last updated:

Abstract:

A system and method for measuring the weight of a user using an scale, the scale having an inflatable pouch with a fluid pressure sensor and a temperature sensor placed therein; a processing circuitry connected to the fluid pressure sensor and the temperature sensor; a communication interface connected to the processing circuitry; wherein the fluid pressure sensor is configured to determine an internal pressure from the fluid pressure sensor, and the temperature sensor is configured to determine an internal temperature within the inflatable pouch; wherein the processing circuitry is configured to calculate a weight of an object placed on the inflatable pouch based on the determined internal pressure and internal temperature; and wherein the processing circuitry is configured to relay the calculated weight of the object to a user device via the communication interface.
