| Summary: | Shortage and excess nutrients in adults is an important issue, it could
cause risk certain diseases, affected work productivity and the body shape.
Because of that monitoring and evaluating nutrition needs to be a sustainable
basis. One way is to maintain an ideal weight or normal. An ideal weight adult
can be known based on body mass index (BMI). BMI is a device to find nutritional
status a person who is related to weaknesses and strengths weight. BMI using two
values that are measured the weight and height. Measuring Instrument body mass
index (BMI) with a microcontroller that reads AT mega 16 will make it easier to
determine the BMI. This device using two sensors there are ultrasonic sensor
(Ping Parallax) to measure height of the body and potentiometer to measure body
weight. This measurement result will be processed by a microcontroller that reads
AT mega 16 and in view in LCD so users can easily see the value BMI. |
