Week of Jan. 23 - Jan. 29

  • created our WikiPage
  • brainstormed ideas regarding nutrition, groceries, and efficiency
  • considered creating an iPhone app that reads the barcodes on food products, and used the codes to help the user live a healthy lifestyle
  • talked about the possible applications a health-related iPhone app could have in hospital use
  • decided to instead make an iPhone app that aids a shopper as they make their way through a grocery store, such as Schnucks
  • brainstormed a list of functions our app could perform that would aid the average shopper: speed through the store, ease in finding products, map of the store, what products are available for purchase, how long their shopping run will take, etc.
