Abstract:
Systems and methods for calculating the weight of an object are provided. In one implementation, an apparatus for calculating weight comprises an image capture device and a processing device. The image capture device is configured to capture a plurality of images of a platform configured to support an object to be weighed, wherein the platform includes known pliability characteristics. The processing device is configured to calculate the weight of the object based on the plurality of images.
