Questions Week 4/5 The Celiac & Gluten Solution

 

1. What was our core idea?

This app will help you understand and teach you if you have become gluten free, or have been diagnosed with celiac disease recently, and are struggling on which products would be the most suitable for you to consume and what you could not. This app would present many features to swipe between pages and the ability to scan a barcode on a certain product presenting a popup where it shows whether it contains wheat, rye, oats or  barley as you can tap on the icon to present the ingredients included in the product. 

Example: this products ingredients, with a brief explanation on that certain product explaining one or some of that are not suitable for your own consumption on the list which the product contains like wheat, as the ingredients that you cannot consume would be underlined in red. Whereas the stuff that cannot do any harm wouldn't be underlined or highlighted.

 

2. Is our solution clear?

= Yes, it is to help aid those who are troubled or lost on what products they can consume(eat) since they have suddenly developed gluten intolerance or have been diagnosed with celiac disease, or came to a realisation that your body cannot tolerate either one or both anymore. Others have changed to gluten free due to personal reasons like a gluten free diet etc. This app will aid with this giving/finding you information more quickly/efficiently.(just by scanning a barcode)

3. What is our ideal end result?

= for this app to work the barcode scanner, the page changing(swiping), the giving of important information easily. As we are hoping for the whole project to come together and it to be published. And for many others to be able to use it to make their lives easier. This will really help people so they don't have to waste time searching for a list on the packaging, or searching it online hoping for a result or even just guessing the ingredients, which is not the best thing to do.

4. Have other people faced the same problems?

= Yes, there are many people that are Gluten-free or have celiac disease, there are many many people in the world that are diagnosed or have come to a realisation that somethings not right. Not as many people who do have it understand what it is and what to look out for when cooking and buying a project. Some people just suddenly develop these problems and consume products containing ingredients to cause an allergic reaction and end up getting hurt in some way. People have had to stand there in a supermarket reading over the back of a product just to check, some products don't even have a list as this is where some of the problems start.

Advice notes from a mentor: (Meeting: 1)

More research and an argument and why would they use this, minimum things needed, what ingredients are not why do you think it is different? Why do people want to use what has the target that this app is for? 

A doctor can tell the people that there is an app for their situation. Got to argue why this app is better. Persuade them. Present how it would look like. Can have a manual entry if the barcode doesn't work. So does a scan. Example of why. Makes different screens. Show off to others to get their opinion and overall designs. The Colour scheme so you could change the colours.
