Inspiration
We all needed to buy groceries more efficiently.
What it does
It uses neural networks to recognize images and add it to a grocery list.
How I built it
We used Android Studio and the Android SDK. It was programmed in Java and XML for layout files. The data is stored in JSON long term.
Challenges I ran into
Android Studio is very difficult to learn. It is a complicated, bulky IDE and it doesn't use standard key shortcuts. It is also extremely slow and laggy.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We managed to interface successfully with Google's Cloud Vision APIs and use a camera object to take pictures to analyze.
What I learned
How to work properly in Android Studio, how to store data on an android device, how to access the network in Java.
What's next for GroceryList
A better UI, a faster network access, a better pricing API.
