2D barcodes have successfully captured people's attention among mobile applications by capturing images from various devices without hardware modification processes, and providing a possible mechanism for bridging the physical world of printing and the cyber world of the Internet. Therefore, this study suggests a mobile-based product and shelf life management application that uses barcodes to manage various products and their shelf life. The suggested system implements barcode data identification through a mobile camera device, with product categorizing and expiry date notification service on mobile devices. Compared to the RFID-based solutions of existing systems, the suggested barcode-based mobile application does not need any special hardware and it can capture barcodes directly with a mobile camera system, with very limited computing resources and without the need for keyboard input, so that the focus is on designing an effective product and shelf life management system to ensure that users use the purchased products more efficiently and appropriately.
