Allergen Detector-Allergen Detection Tool

Overview of Allergen Detector

Allergen Detector is a specialized tool designed to help individuals identify potential allergens in food products by analyzing images of ingredient lists. Leveraging advanced image recognition and data processing technologies, it can detect and highlight the presence of the 14 most common food allergens as defined by the European Regulation (Reglamento Europeo 1169/2011 and Real Decreto 126/2015). These allergens include cereals containing gluten, crustaceans, eggs, fish, peanuts, soy, milk (including lactose), nuts, celery, mustard, sesame seeds, sulphur dioxide and sulphites, lupin, and molluscs. When an allergen is identified in an ingredient list, Allergen Detector emphasizes it by rendering the allergen's name in uppercase and marking it with an asterisk (*) for clear visibility. This tool is designed to be user-centric, providing personalized assistance by inquiring about users' specific allergies to tailor the information provided. Examples of its application include scanning the ingredient list on a cereal box to identify the presence of gluten or checking a canned soup label for traces of milk or soy. Powered by ChatGPT-4o。
