Sustainability Smart Phone App Wins Greener Gadgets Award

greener-gadgets-winner

The Greener Gadgets Design Competition, hosted by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), handed out its winners for most innovative designs last Thursday.

Ten finalists were selected out of the hundreds of designers that applied with first place going to AUG/Living Goods Program. This concept is a smart phone app that scans bar codes of produce and gives the user relevant sustainability data on the item like how far away the food has traveled to get to you, if it’s in season locally as well as other data.

Judges lauded the app design for being both practical and mobile, a rarity in most other entries this year.
