Don't you wish you could organise your household without a complicated labelling procedure?
Findus will help you.
Findus is a product recognition programme with a bar code scanner for the blind and visually impaired. With Findus, you can e.g. organise your larder at home or search through your CD collection.
Findus operation is based on the evaluation of the bar code, which is printed on the vast majority of packages. Findus will recognise more than half a million products and brand names, among them the most important household consumer goods, foods and most available music CDs and cassettes. Its database already contains many products that can be found in German supermarkets and retail chain stores. Item data can be updated and extended at any time. In addition, the Findus user can enter new and unknown products via the computer keyboard or adapt the description of existing products to his/her own requirements.
The programme works with a small, portable, omnidirectional scanner, which is connected directly to your PC or Laptop. It is very easy to use and enables you to locate the bar code quickly without having to worry about its aspect on the package.
Findus helps you to sort your tin cans, boxes and music CDs without assistance from another person and offers a quick way of finding the very item you are looking for. By installing the device on a small Laptop, you can even take it with you on your shopping trips.
