Smart mat that senses body weight and related data and transmits wirelessly to a phone or hub

A smart mat that senses body weight and transmits weight data to a host electronic device, said smart mat comprising:

• a smart mat platform comprising a first layer made of a conventional flexible textile material that is easy to clean and suitable for a user to stand upon, a second sensor control sheet layer, and hardware components and control circuitry to detect force and measure weight of the user while the user stands upon the conventional flexible textile material at the first layer of the smart mat platform, wherein the hardware components and control circuitry comprise a plurality of pressure sensors that detect and measure force applied by the two feet of the user, wherein the smart mat further comprises a plurality of tiles within which the plurality of pressure sensors are embedded into the second sensor control sheet layer of the smart mat platform, said plurality of tiles aligned in a pattern to fit within a perimeter that approximates a border of the smart mat;
• a remote cloud-based server configured to aggregate and track body weight data of the user in a cloud database;
• a smartphone of the user that is configured to receive data transmissions from the household mat and transmit the data to the remote cloud-based server for tracking and aggregation;
• and
• a gateway for wireless communication between the smart mat, the smartphone of the user, and the remote cloud-based server.
