A system and method for estimating dynamic quantities is provided. The system includes an electronic identification recognition apparatus, a weight measuring apparatus, and a computing apparatus. The electronic identification recognition apparatus can recognize an electronic identification for a corresponding item placed into the system, and the weight measuring apparatus measures a total weight of all items that it carries. The computing apparatus is coupled to the weight measuring apparatus and the electronic identification recognition apparatus, for receiving the total weight, such that the quantity of the item can be estimated and recorded by using the total weights obtained respectively before and after the item is stored or removed and a recognition result from the electronic identification recognition apparatus.

What is claimed is: 1. A system for estimating dynamic quantities, comprising: an electronic identification recognition apparatus for accessing a content of an electronic identification corresponding to a item placed into the system; a weight measuring apparatus for measuring a total weight of all the item being carried; and a computing apparatus, coupled to the weight measuring apparatus and the electronic identification recognition apparatus, for receiving the total weight, such that a quantity of an individual item can be estimated and recorded by using the total weight obtained respectively before and after the individual item is stored and a recognition result obtained from the electronic identification recognition apparatus, wherein each electronic identification includes an individual identification code for each individual item. 2. The system for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 1, wherein the electronic identification contains an identification code or name, a tare weight and an initial net weight of the item being attached. 3. The system for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 2, wherein the identification code is not the same as the identification codes in other electronic identifications. 4. The system for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 1, wherein when the electronic identification recognition apparatus fails to recognize contents of the electronic identification for a corresponding item, the item is sorted into a specific category by the computing apparatus. 5. The system for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 4, wherein the electronic identification recognition apparatus fails to recognize the contents of the electronic identification for a corresponding item because the corresponding item is not provided with the electronic identification. 6. The system for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 1, wherein the weight measuring apparatus is disposed in an accommodation room. 7. The system for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 6, wherein the electronic identification recognition apparatus is also arranged in the accommodation room. 8. A method for estimating dynamic quantities, suitable for determining the quantities of items stored in a system, wherein the system has a weight measuring apparatus, the method comprising: detecting whether a total weight carried by the weight measuring apparatus has changed; and detecting whether the number of electronic identifications of the items in the system is increased or reduced when the total weight has changed, wherein when the number of electronic identifications is increased, the items corresponding to the newly added electronic identifications are determined as newly added items in the system and an item list is updated accordingly, and the individual weights of the newly added items is estimated; wherein when the electronic identifications are reduced, the items corresponding to the reduced electronic identifications are determined as items removed from the system, and the removed items are removed from the item list; and wherein when the number of the electronic identifications does not change, the weight of a specific category is updated. 9. The method for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 8, wherein the electronic identification records the tare weight and the initial net weight of the item being attached. 10. The method for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 9, wherein when k items are placed into the system at the same time, the step of estimating the individual weights of the newly added items includes estimating the individual weight values of the k items according to the following inequality: wherein Ri is an estimated weight of the ith item; Pj is a tare weight of the jth item; Ni and Nj are the initial net weights of the ith item and the jth item respectively; T is the difference of the total weights before and after the k items are placed into the system. 11. The method for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 10, wherein when m items are removed from the k items from the system at the same time, the individual weight values of the remaining items from the k items are estimated according to the following inequality: wherein Ri is an estimated weight of the ith item; Pj is a tare weight of the jth item; Ni and Nj are the initial net weights of the ith item and the jth item respectively; T is a difference of the total weights measured by the weight measuring apparatus before and after the k items are placed into the system; and T' is a difference of the total weights measured by the weight measuring apparatus before and after the m items are removed. 12. The method for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 9, wherein when only one item is placed into the system, the step of estimating the individual weights of the increased items includes estimating the weight of the increased item according to the following expression: Ri=T-Pi wherein Ri is a quantity of item; T is a difference of the total weights measured by the weight measuring apparatus before and after the newly added items are placed into the system; and Pi is a tare weight of the item. 13. The method for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 8, further including detecting and listing all items in the system before performing the method for estimating dynamic quantities, wherein items without recognizable electronic identifications are sorted into a specific category. 14. The method for estimating dynamic quantities as claimed in claim 8, wherein each of the electronic identifications includes an individual identifications code for each of the items. 15. A system for estimating dynamic quantities, comprising: an electronic identification recognition apparatus for accessing a content of an electronic identification corresponding to an item placed into the system; a weight measuring apparatus for measuring a total weight of all the item being carried; and a computing apparatus, coupled to the weight measuring apparatus and the electronic identification recognition apparatus, for receiving the total weight, such that a quantity of an individual item can be estimated and recorded by using the total weight obtained respectively before and after the individual item is stored and a recognition result obtained from the electronic identification recognition apparatus, wherein the computing apparatus determines whether the total weight carried by the weight measuring apparatus has changed; and determines whether the number of all the electronic identification of all the item in the system is increased or reduced when the total weight has changed, wherein when the number of all the electronic identification is increased, the item corresponding to a newly added electronic identification is determined as a newly added item in the system and an item list is updated accordingly, and an individual weight of the newly added item is estimated; wherein when the number of all the electronic identification is reduced, the item corresponding to a reduced electronic identification is determined as a item removed from the system, and the removed item is removed from the item list; and wherein when the number of all the electronic identification does not change, the weight of a specific category is updated.
