Hi! My name is Lawrence, and I am a high school senior studying in Vancouver, Canada. I am interested in computer science, which I have been invovled in through courses and projects. Over the past two years, I have been a student researcher at California State Polytechnic University under the mentorship of a CS professor. Inventorious is one of my products, which aims at reducing food waste. I seek to have more opportunities of such projects and learning exeperiences in the future!
What is Inventorious?
Inventorious is a mobile application that serves for reducing food waste. It is a project that I developed during my research career. Sparked by the stuffed shelves that are often not emptied, I wonder where the plethora of food goes, and conserving them is a better idea than abandoning them. With the implementation of computer vision, Inventorious would be a handy tool for people to update supermarket stock information for their community, fitting the fast pace of modern lifestyle.
The project has been published at the 3rd International Conference on Data Science & Machine Learning (DSML 2022), and the manuscript can be found here. Inventorious has also gained a provisional patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in August 2022, which I hope to extend through future works.
