ABSTRACT:
A portable bathroom scale is described wherein an optical encoder is used to determine the scale displacement in an unambiguous manner. A convenient circuit is used to transform the optical code on an encoder disc to the code needed to activate a decimal display. A mechanism is described for automatically activating the encoder and display when a person steps on the scale and deactivate the mechanism when the person steps off the scale.
