Phonegap - Android, iOS, Windows Phone (deprecated)

The application was mainly dedicated to the collection of products: bar code scanning , sending photos, input basic information.

The application was developed in HTML and JavaScript and is based on the PhoneGap platform (also known as Cordova). It is packaged for Android and iOS and used to be packaged with the Moodstocks scanner. It now needs the BarcodeScanner PhoneGap plugin instead.

• Still powers Open Beauty Facts on iOS (to be replaced by a refactor of the Flutter app for cosmetics) - Mobile App/Cordova Development Notes - Useful if we need to update the legacy Open Beauty Facts on iOS for some reason

Large public Application: augmented reality

• Information display overlay product .
• Ongoing trial with Moodstocks. First tests rather conclusive: the products are easily recognized when the camera passes over (without scanning and without taking a picture).

Application for people who have difficulty reading

• For people who are blind, have difficulty reading when it says very little that can not read.
