Hunger Games is a series of mini-apps that let users contribute data to Open Food Facts, in a rather fun way using React. You are very welcome to write the game you want.
The production website is available at https://hunger.openfoodfacts.org
- Because we are sympathetic to Katniss' fight against Panem.
- Open Food Facts generates a lot of photos, and we need to turn them into reliable data about food and cosmetics, at very large scale.
- We process all pictures using top OCR techniques and get a lot of raw text and entities (logos) about the products.
- We then need to let users leverage this data to easily complete products, in a fun way, on their mobiles.
The main goal is: Every Open Food Facts user can annotate products in a few minutes.
