The plate’s creators say that they are already adding mixed foods likes salads into the algorithm, and soon the plate will recognize the percentages of different produce you’re having for lunch. It will even be able to assess the nutritional content of more complicated foods like burritos, provided you cut into them so the camera can get a look inside, as reported on Yahoo news.

Once the SmartPlate figures out what you’re eating, it weighs the ingredients on a built-in scale and sends the nutritional information to a growing food diary of your meals. Then, as you continue to use it, the plate will make recommendations for what you should or shouldn’t be eating based on your diet goals.

It will even warn you to slow down if you’re eating fast... as it takes about 20 minutes for your brain to register that you’re full, so eating slowly is a good way to eat just right.
