This is how your body analyser scale works
Your new body analyser scale works using so-called BIA-technology (Bioelectric
Impedance Analysis). This involves an undetectable, completely harmless and weak
current flowing through your body.
The measurement takes place via sensors that are mounted on the weighing surface.
The current flows relatively unhindered through the fluid contained in muscle mass.
The resistance of fat mass is stronger. This resistance is measured.
Using your personal data (sex, weight, age, and height), the scale calculates the
following information about your body composition:
Body fat proportion in %
Body water in %
Muscle mass in %
Bone mass in g
Weight
The scale has a total of 8 user slots and also offers BMI calculation in the FITvigo app.
Measurement errors
Measurement or calculation errors may arise for the following groups of people during
the body analysis:
People who ....
... spend 10 hours or more per week playing sport,
... are professional athletes, body builders and endurance athletes,
... are over 70 years old,
... are less than 10 years old.
The "normal" weighing function (see next chapter) is not affected by these
considerations.
