Backend Support for QR and Barcode Scanning

[Th0rgal]

Enhance the backend to support the detection and processing of QR and barcodes scanned by the app. The system should differentiate between codes associated with meals and other types of codes, redirecting to an external API for non-meal codes.

Implementation Details

• Functionality: Detect whether a scanned code is a QR or barcode via GPT-4 API and if it is, use another API to get data.

Tasks

1. Code Detection:

   • Adapt prompt to tell GPT-4 to inform us if the detected meal is a qr code.

2. Call an API or use our own DB:

   • Find a way to get food data from the bar code image, refine it and send it to the app.
