How can we use consumer behaviour to prevent food waste in order to advance sustainability and inclusiveness along the value chain?
What it does: Create an application software with a QR/barcode code scanning feature. This would enable a consumer to scan a grocery store item and offer information regarding sustainable methods to preserve, prepare, and safely dispose of food in order to increase both the shelf-life and utilization of food. The App functionality is as follows:
- Product Shelf-Life Info
- Shelf-Life Education
- Zero-Waste Recipes
- Disposal Advisor
- Grocery List Advisor
- CO2 Emission Footprint Tracking
How we built it: We created a system structure and a wrote a code to scan a barcode to provide instructions on preventing waste (This was a mock demo)
Challe Limitations experienced and issues in document submission
