Japanese law (the "Metabo Law") requires companies to monitor the waistlines of employees. In 2026, BCA manufacturers have responded with AI-driven Visceral Fat Area (VFA) estimation. This technology uses predictive algorithms to estimate the square centimeters of fat surrounding the internal organs without the need for an expensive CT scan.

The results are presented as a Visceral Fat Grade. Because visceral fat is metabolically active and linked to cardiovascular disease, these kiosks provide immediate dietary feedback, such as recommendations for specific Japanese functional foods (Tokuhu) that assist in lipid metabolism, directly on the user’s smartphone.
