System for measuring and monitoring weight and volume of an object or a portion thereof

A system for measuring and monitoring weight and volume of an object or a portion thereof at periodic intervals to track the growth of said object or a portion thereof, said system comprising:

• a processor configured to receive predetermined set of rules from a rules repository and further configured to generate system processing commands;
• a weight sensing unit configured to, under said system processing commands, measure load of said object or a portion thereof, and further configured to generate and transmit weight signals;
• a volume sensing unit configured to, under said system processing commands, scan or capture images of said object or a portion thereof and further configured to generate contour signals corresponding to an outer profile of said scanned object or captured image of said object;
• and
• a first data repository configured to store pre-determined set of mathematical formulae,
• characterized in that:
• said processor is configured to receive said weight signals to generate and store digital values of measured weight of said object or a portion thereof corresponding to received weight signals, said processor further configured to receive said mathematical formulae and said contour signals to compute and store volume of said object or a portion thereof corresponding to said contour signals using said mathematical formulae, said processor still further configured to compute the weight and volume of one or more of the internal constituents of the object or its portion thereof using the stored measured weight and the stored computed volume of the object or its portion thereof.
