The system comprises 3 apps:
+
+
* [[BarTender]] : Macintosh app that interfaces via serial cable to a scale, allowing scanning and weighing of bar-coded items such as water bottles and food jars across an experiment. Data is stored locally and in Google Firebase database.
+
+
* [[PointOfScale]] : iPad app that interfaces with a Bluetooth scale, allowing for weighing of animals across an experiment. Integrates with BarTender data in the Firebase database.
+
+
* [[BarTab]] : Web app that retrieves and displays the Firebase data in any browser.
