Have you ever been in a supermarket and had no idea what to cook?
Maybe you discovered some interesting ingredients while traveling, but you didn’t know what to do with them?
With “ScanEat”, you can easily scan unpacked food to get cooking inspiration.
Collect cards with the food’s features and new recipes when you scan new foods.
Customize your profile and get a personal feed of recipes and seasonal specials.
And it is always a match! Scan food and collect cards with foods features and connected recepies.
Your personal profile contains your progress, saved search results, and receipts.
The more you scan and cook, the higher your level will be. Every level adds a new recipe to the existing cards.

Using board games and Pokemons as inspiration, we came up with ideas for making cooking interactive and enjoyable.
As a group, we developed this app as part of Patricia Reiners’ “Beyond the Screen” course at the HS Mainz.
Since we all participated in the brainstorming, our contributions cannot be separated. My favorite part of the project was creating the survey and prototyping the whole app and user experience.
