TellSpec: The gadget that can tell you how many calories are in your food just by scanning? (Pic & Video)

For many women, watching their weight and resisting food that contain many calories is their major priority. Hurry! You can now control the amount of calories you consume, just by scanning your food.

TellSpec, a keyring sized sensor can tell you exactly how many calories are in your food simply by scanning it.

The small handheld gadget, which works with a mobile phone app, contains a spectrometer to analyse the chemical compounds in food.

The Canadian inventors claim it can ‘tell you the allergens, chemicals, nutrients, calories, and ingredients in your food or beverages’.

It works by scanning the food and uploading the data to special web server.

There’s an algorithm that creates a report, which is sent to a mobile phone app revealing the food’s contents.

The inventors, Stephen Watson and Isabel Hoffmann hope to begin selling the gadget next year, and say it will be small enough to use as a keyring.
