technical features of
scangoroo
The technical features of scangoroo are a scale for weighing loose goods such as fruit and vegetables and for making the purchase plausible after each addition of a product. There are also two cameras on the outside of the handle that are used to capture barcode-labeled products. A long display which shows information about the scanned goods and which can be used to pay with a bank card with an NFC chip at the end of the purchase. LED light strips run along the edges, which shines GREEN at the end of shopping after successful payment and RED for products that have not been scanned or scanned incorrectly. A vibration of the handle signals that a product has been successfully scanned and placed in the bag.

About Us

In Germany, 12% of foodstuffs purchased end up in the garbage. That is an average of about 40 kg of fruits, vegetables, cereals or dairy products per inhabitant and year.

Why do we throw so much away?

Because we more than necessary. We do not buy quantities that we actually need, but we usually buy in advance, as we do not know exactly when we will have time and desire to visit the supermarket or drugstore next time. Apart from the issue of sustainability, above all one‘s own leisure time naturally plays an important role here. Who wants to waste „useless“ time when there are so many more important, meaningful or beautiful things to do than queuing up at a cash register.

In supermarkets or drugstores, queuing time at the cash register is often unpredictable, especially during peak hours it can quite lengthy. Also the unpacking and repacking of goods is time-consuming and exhausting. The result is that we buy less fresh, sustainable and unpackaged foodstuffs than we would prefer and waste a lot of valuable time with queuing, waiting and packing.
