The plate can control the user's diet

French firm Slowcontrol is presenting at the Consumer Technology Exhibition in the United States (CES) the first Internet-connected disc, capable of monitoring the user's diet.

Hapifork fork

Jacques Lepine, inventor of the disc, said: 'We know that overeating often leads to difficult health problems. I decided to solve this problem with the fork ".

Jacques Lepine later developed a disc capable of measuring caloric content in a meal and if the person eats 'far beyond the allowable level' , the plate will start to vibrate and give a warning signal.

The device, which can be easily washed, is expected to be sold in the US for $ 99 from next April. In addition, users will be downloading software instructions on eating habits.

The disk, also known as "HapiFork" , can be sold with other health-related products manufactured by HapiLabs.
