'''Yellow light''' means '''caution''' and an uncertain [[score]]. It may also signal a lack of [[price]] or [[price premium]] data, and the inability to flash a [[green light]] or [[red light]]. It may also signal uncertainty when two green light products are available at the same [[point of purchase]]. The only way to recommend one is to know the [[price premium]] the [[consumer]] is willing to pay, which will require translating the [[score]] into [[currency]], so that a device or him/herself can calculate whether the price plus the premium they find to reflect its merits, is more favourable to one product or the other. With all this information in the [[database]], the yellow light could simply be a price, meaning '''buy at this price'''. The acceptable product which comes closest to the buy price is the one that the consumer should buy. Possibly in this instance, however, the [[end user]] will want to review the detailed comments about the product looked up by [[barcode]]. There may be good reasons not to use the same criteria to evaluate both of the products. Comments are a note in [[Simple English]] about issues with, and merits of, the [[product]]. Probably filtered from [[opinion wiki]]. [[Hardware requirements]] to make this easy at [[point of purchase]] are severe. It may be these requirements that kill the project! So coordinating with other [[essential projects]] is quite important. One of those other projects may actually help justify the hardware.
