Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a wearable dietary and information logging system. The system consists of a cellular phone, a sphygmomanometer, a body composition monitor and a calorie consumption meter, which are crucial for monitoring life-related diseases. We conducted an experiment with a subject and succeeded to get his dietary and health information continuously for two months. We also introduce the blog interface for home health care as one of the applications
