Have you ever found yourself daydreaming on holding that laser-beam-spreading, jedi-gun-like gadget of cashiers in your hand, trying to scan everything around? Or wanted to add some books to your “TO READ” list but felt too lazy to write its paragraph-like title on your notepad? Well,we promise that you’ll like this app, and the feeling of control around your consumerist existence very much!
Maybe no laser beams but certainly hi-tech!
The App
Though the app store have had some alternatives for this functionality, a new app called Red Laser, claims to shine out thanks to its improved usability. It’s been developed by a bunch of developers who call themselves Occipital, and believe it or not, it even has a developer API!
So.. What can i actually do something useful with this barcode scanner?
Feel free to abuse this ideas;
- Scan the thingy, and instantly learn the alternative prices, reviews etc on the internet
- Found the perfect movie to which is romantic enough to watch with your girlfriend but involves violence and action to make you stand it? Scan the movie at the store, add it to your personal “watchlist”, or.. you know.. don’t do something illegal!
- Scan the rare-quality-but-hard-to-tell-coffe-brand you worship, add it to your grocery list, and prevent your boyfriend to buy something wrong next time!
