Problem Motivation
• Unsafe foods cause an estimated 6.5 to 81 million illnesses and 9,100 related deaths each year in the United States[1]
• Hard for most people to maintain the quality and freshness of their foods

Problem Description
• Reduce toxic food consumed possibility• Keep food freshness/expiration dates updated • Keep a right track on refrigerator's temperature
and lighting

Related Work
• Most website and mobile apps only support textual information/instructions.
• Many of them are focus on food itself and additive, but ignore the environment and method to store the food.
• Many of the information are either too professional or too complicated for common people.

Mobile App• Good information but hard
for user to remember.• Very professional, however
may not be the thing common people want
• Passive: with no visualized information and interact function
![Page 8: PureFoods "YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT"](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56815f5d550346895dce3ebf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Our Solution
• Provide live refrigerator information• Keep track on all the food user purchased
and build inventory list with detailed information for user to interact.
• Send warning and reminding when foods are going bad

Tasks Overview
The functional prototype followed three basic tasks: Food Storage History ReviewWarning Summary
Food Inventory Maintenance

Lo-fidelity Prototype
Our prototyping progressed throughout the project:
• Paper Mock Ups• Balsamiq Models• Interactive Website and
Mobile Application

User testing performed on ourBalsamiq model helped shape the future of our program
• Witty names• Ease of navigation• Labeling of graphics
Mid-Fidelity User Testing

Our primary interactive prototype was a mobile application.
• Android Operating System• Some functionality was dictated by system

4 repeatedly go back to previous screens in order to get back to home screen
add a home screen button
4 strain eyes to see words make font size bigger
3 click on selection bar instead of words
make selection bar selectable
2 click item and then remove instead of reverse
make applicable for both ways
1 submit item without completing all fields
