<title>Wii Fit Board as Mail (or Other) Weighing scale?</title>
<description> This may be silly, but I was wondering if there was a app to use the Wii Fit board as a weighing scale. I would like to use the board kind of like a mail scale... no, exactly like a mail scale for estimating shipping on items I am going to post on ebay.

If there is something like that out there I would love to know,

Thanks in advane</description><link>http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,13210,13210#msg-13210</link><lastBuildDate>Thu, 13 Aug 2026 18:07:53 +0200</lastBuildDate>

Sure. Whenever you&#039;re ready though, let me know.]]></description>

Besides, a dedicated app could be more versatile - just think of all the times you&#039;ve needed to know your weight in Newtons, but were out of luck because the bathroom scale industry continues to ignore this potential market!<br /><br />"Ask and ye shall receive"... if only that worked for every request made here...]]></description>

When you first start the game and choose your mii, it weighs you before you start....<br /><br />but i guess instead of booting up the game and picking your mii... why waste seconds right ?]]></description>

If you now how much pressure is applied on an area which also is known. Then the object would be of mass m, according to the following equation.<br /><br />m = p * A / g<br /><br />where<br />m is the mass in kg,<br />p is the total applied pressure on the wii fit board in Pa (Pascal),<br />A is the area of where the pressure is measured in m<sup>2</sup>, and<br />g is the gravitational acceleration (=some value within 9.78 and 9.82 Nm/s (Newton meters / second) at Earth&#039;s surface depending on the location on the globe).]]></description>
