Hume Health Body Pod: The Complete Guide to the Next-Generation Full-Body Composition Analyzer Hume Health Body Pod In an age where health optimization is becoming more accurate, data-driven, and personalized, traditional weighing scales simply aren’t enough. Most people step on a standard scale expecting more answers than it can give. Weight alone cannot reveal what’s really happening inside your body—how much muscle you’re building, how much fat you’re losing, or how your hydration levels impact your day-to-day performance. Hume Health Body Pod This is exactly where the Hume Health Body Pod stands out. Built with advanced multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and an 8-electrode scanning system, it goes far beyond ordinary smart scales. The Body Pod is designed not only to measure your weight but to give you a full internal health map every time you step on it. Hume Health Body Pod With up to 45 detailed body metrics—from visceral fat to muscle mass, metabolic rate, segmental composition, and hydration levels—the Hume Health Body Pod transforms your daily weigh-in into a powerful, meaningful health ritual. What Is the Hume Health Body Pod? Hume Health Body Pod is an advanced full-body composition analyzer engineered for people who want deeper, more precise health data than a standard scale can offer. Instead of relying on one or two points of contact like traditional smart scales, the Body Pod uses an 8-electrode system integrated into both the foot platform and handheld sensors. This allows it to analyze your body from head to toe, producing a deeper, more accurate breakdown of: · Body fat mass · Muscle mass · Lean body mass · Visceral fat · Bone mass · Total body water · Segmental composition (arms, legs, torso) · Metabolic rate · Hydration levels · Metabolic trends over time · And more—up to 45 unique health metrics Oricle Hearing Ads Once you step on the platform and hold the hand sensors, the Body Pod scans your entire physiology and sends all results directly to the Hume app, where you can view insights, trends, and personalized recommendations. Whether your goal is fat loss, muscle gain, improved hydration, or long-term wellness optimization, the Body Pod is built to help you understand your body with unmatched precision. Why the Hume Health Body Pod Is More Advanced Than a Smart Scale Oricle Hearing Ads Traditional smart scales use a single-frequency, four-electrode BIA scan, which means they only measure your lower body—and only at one type of electrical frequency. This results in partial, less accurate data. The Hume Health Body Pod uses: Multi-frequency BIA Oricle The Body Pod sends electrical currents at multiple frequencies, giving a far richer analysis of intracellular and extracellular water, muscle tissue density, and fat distribution. 8-electrode measurement system With sensors on both feet and both hands, the Body Pod analyzes your entire body, not just the lower half. Segmental analysis Oricle It breaks down body composition per limb and torso, allowing you to see imbalances, strengths, and areas that need improvement. Up to 45 body metrics This level of detail is usually only found in clinical-grade or lab-grade body composition analyzers. In short, the Body Pod is not just another smart scale—it's a full-body health intelligence platform. How the Hume Health Body Pod Works Oracle Hearing Ads The technology behind the Body Pod is both simple to use and deeply sophisticated. Step 1: Stand on the platform barefoot This allows the lower-body electrodes to detect your body’s resistance and reactions. Step 2: Hold the hand sensors Oracle Hearing Ads This completes the 8-electrode circuit, enabling full-body scanning from head to toe. Step 3: Multi-frequency current analysis The Body Pod’s advanced system sends low-level electrical currents throughout your body. Don’t worry—you can’t feel it. Different tissues (fat, water, muscle, bone) react differently to these signals. Step 4: Instant syncing to the Hume app Oracle Hearing Ads Within seconds, your results appear in an easy-to-read dashboard showing dozens of metrics, historical trends, and long-term progress. Step 5: Insight-driven guidance You can view changes in your muscle mass, fat distribution, hydration, and metabolic trends to make smarter health decisions. Key Metrics the Hume Health Body Pod Measures Oricle One of the most powerful aspects of the Body Pod is the depth of data it gives you. Here are some of the most important metrics it tracks: 1. Body Fat Mass Learn exactly how much fat you carry—both overall and in specific body segments. 2.

its easy to think of some desirable behavior, but since it is maliciously compliant, its also important to think of the ways that the behavior might occur when you don't want it to. Some behavior could be useful in one case, but annoying in several other cases.

This is a pretty big feature, and people have been talking about it since the A23 days calc would’ve been added by now

I remember having a similar feature (stance build & gather) in Rise of Nations which I deactivated very soon. Sending units to a rally point to easily get back to them, just to see few moments later, that there are no units, drove me crazy. Okay, they weren't idle and did some stuff, but they weren't really available.

New major update, focusing mostly on cavalry. - Cavalry can no longer hunt. Use infantry javelineers to hunt animals. Infantry meat gather rate increased slightly to compensate. - Cavalry javelin throwers are no longer trainable by any civilization, except by the Iberians. They keep their cavalry javelineer champion, but he is not very effective against units. - Civic centers can no longer train cavalry. Build a Barracks or Stable if you're Persian. - You can no longer build bolt shooters. This was done because their model is ugly and looks ridiculous when moving. I'd done the same with the Catapults, but you need some ranged siege options in order to break fortified positions. - Jubot AI removed, as it's very buggy and has poor performance. - Roman Army Camps can't build Rams anymore. - In addition to cavalry javeleneers, Hellenes can no longer train Slingers. Reason for removing the mounted javelin throwers is because they are not balanced enough. They need to hit hard like infantry javelins, but they are also much faster. Hit and run tactics don't work very well because of the "phantom strike" bug on units that are moving, so they are exploitable. An exception was made for the the chariot archers, because they are at least expensive. Cavalry can no longer hunt for the same reason as above, and because it sometimes takes too long for a single javelin to hit an animal. The opening post is updated to point at the latest version.

I also got some: WARNING: PlayerID 2 | petra.findOverseaLand on a non-naval map??? we should never go there Replay is attached. metadata.json

Yeah this will be fixed no worries.

We've figured out in the meantime that this is caused by vandalism of the Italian translation and we're working on fixing that.

Will you add the balloons as well?

Since today I am working on that, see PR #8593.

In addition to what @Stan` said, there isn't even a way to translate strings for (American) English in Transifex, as that's the language we use for the source strings, so they don't need translating and therefore can't be translated there.

What about other languages than those two? What's the language you use for your operating system?

Definitely. As I don't know how to do that I'll just bring the topic up once a year.

For the moment I just created Issue #8590 over there.

If I select Italian it works, just that the amount of translated strings seems very low. <- @Dunedan

We can't do that in string freeze. A PR for the next release would be welcome.

Any errors ?

Tried the rc1 appimage, it is working fine, but there is an issue with Italian locale. If I select Italian, the game still run in English. I also tried espanol and it is properly in spanish. So, the issue is just for Italian.

Got nothing to report after playing it. Except that I still think ""Neareastern" Badlands" is still a poor map name.

For a navy, bridges would be like walls for rams: they cannot be crossed but destroyed. To avoid their excessive building (wonder what the animnation would look like) bridges could have a maximum length or could be a pre-disposition connecting two defined points on a map. But as I wrote, it would be a slightly different game then.

This makes sense in a tactical RTS without ships, like Praetorians. If you allow building bridges, what would be the point of building a navy, then?

Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, this does not work as well. As before, it loads up to 100 per cent, and then prior to the game start it crashes.

You might try to enable Vulkan in the game options, see if that fixes it.
