Next time you lie about your age, remind yourself to check for suspicious carpet below your feet.您下一次的谎言您的年龄，提醒自己，以检查可疑的地毯下面您英尺。 Researchers over at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology in Japan has invented an intelligent carpet that is able to detect your weight, age and gender by simply having you stroll across it.研究人员超过在国家研究所的先进工业科学和技术在日本已发明了一种智能地毯是能够侦测到你的体重，年龄和性别，只要有您漫步全国。
“The carpet’s intelligence is derived from a layer of silicone rubber with built-in electrodes that measure the changes in electrical resistance and current flow caused by someone walking across it.” “地毯的情报是来自一层硅橡胶设有内置式电极测量的变化，电阻和电流的流动所造成的，有人步行横跨它” 。
According to lab test results, the carpet is very accurate as well.根据实验室的化验结果，地毯是非常准确的，以及。 Determining age between 20 and 60 yields almost perfect results, whereas determining gender is a neat 75 percent accuracy.确定年龄介乎二十至六十产量几乎完美的结果，而确定性别是一个整齐的75 ％的准确性。 Weight is no big deal, of course.重量是没有什么大不了的，当然。
I would imagine the technology is most useful for demographic research in places such as cinemas and shopping malls.我想象的技术是最有用的人口研究的地方，例如电影院和商场。
