The Corporate fallout Detector is a device designed for the politically conscious shopper.

The detector scans barcodes off of consumer products, and makes a clicking noise based on the environmental or ethical record of the manufacturer.

According to the designer James Patten, the goal of the project is to encourage awareness and curiosity, rather than to serve as an educated consumer’s sole source of information.
