吃是一项重要的任务，对我们的情绪和身体状况有重大影响。监测诸如咬人等饮食行为可以优化饮食习惯。在本文中，我们探索了一种新的方法，通过促进食物材料的导电性，将正常的食物变成咬伤检测传感器来监测进食行为。为了验证我们方法的潜力，我们研究了食物传感器在咀嚼不同食物表面积时阻力的变化。结果表明，当被试咬咬食物传感器时，阻力发生变化，随后呈线性增加。我们认为我们提出的方法有可能作为咬伤活动监测工具。例如，我们的食物传感器与智能设备集成后，可以同时估计进食速度，当人们吃得太快时发出警告，或者记录进食行为，而不需要额外的硬件。
Eating is an essential task and has a significant impact on our emotional and physical conditions. Monitoring an eating behavior such as biting activity could optimize the eating habit. In this paper, we explore a new method to monitor eating behavior by facilitating the electrical conductivity of food material and turning such normal food into a biting detection sensor. To verify the potential of our method, we studied the changes in resistance of a food sensor when biting with different amounts of food's surface area. Our results show that the resistance changed when the participant bit the food sensor and increased linearly afterward. We believe that our proposed method could potentially be used as the biting activity monitoring tool. For example, our food sensor when integrated with smart devices could simultaneously estimate the eating speed, alert the person when they eat too fast or record the eating behavior without requires additional hardware.
