BC Scan, Scan It, Learn About it, Use It
BCScan is a free service that allows you to organize, catalog, learn about, and manage
your groceries, CDs, movies, household products, medications, or just about anything
else. It works using a bar code scanner and a database of roughly a million products.
When a bar code on an item is scanned, BCScan will check a database for the product
and tell you what it is. You can add products to your personal inventory, add notes,
or contribute additional information. It's great for the visually impaired person
who needs to identify a canned good or for anyone who wants to better organize their
life.
