‘Near-Infrared Interactance’ (NIR) technology for measuring body fat was developed by the U.S. Government Department of Agriculture. BodyScript technology is based on NIR which uses a computerized spectrophotometer that measures the absorption of light wavelengths against the material (i.e. body fat) the light comes in contact with. This measurement is based upon using light in the Near-Infrared spectrum, a safe wavelength range that is invisible to the naked eye. In this part of the light spectrum, the organic constituents in a person, such as body fat, muscle, and water content, etc., all have their own unique ‘optical signature’. The BodyScript sensor is able to accurately detect each of these unique optical signatures for body fat, muscle, and water.
