DietSensor is a third party developer on the SCiO Platform. DietSensor App was developed on top of the SCiO platform operated by Consumer Physics.

SCiO uses something called near infrared spectroscopy to determine the chemical makeup of food and drink. Each type of molecule in a food vibrates in its own unique way, and these vibrations interact with light to create a unique, optical signature. In brief, spectrometers analyze what is in a substance based on how its molecules interact with light.

This method has been used in labs throughout the world, but with very large, expensive spectrometers. We are finally able to make it available to you with the revolutionary, portable SCiO, small enough to slip into your pocket.
