Hello,
I have long admired the facial recognition application not for itself, but for its potential.
The facial recognition component means taking a picture of something can identify it provided it is already in the database. The open source aspect of this means if people latch onto the idea it has the possibility to exponential growth just like wiki did.
Think take a picture of any flora, fauna, geological item and have it identified with feed back on; dangers of use (poisonous?), how it can be used ( food/clothing etc), location, its relationship to other materials etc.
Ensure that the data base for this gets stored locally although it can update from and to "the cloud" so that its value beyond cell tower range (where it will find its greatest uses) will be ensured.
Now the average cellphone has been transformed into a true electronic field guide that retains its value to be brought with you even OUT of cell phone tower range.
Hunters and campers will ALL want to have this electronic field guide that tells us what we can and cannot safely eat or use of wild plant life for example.
Identifying every tree, bush, rock, plant (edible / non edible) animal, insect, etc becomes the lifeblood of every hunter, fisherman, naturalist, camper, survivalist, geologist etc on the face of the planet.
Include code for apple/android/windows
This would open up every cellphone user to become both a contributor and a potential customer.
This program, could benefit humanity and save lives.
Show the world what its been missing!
I'd like a free copy of the android app when you make one, although a royalty would be even better! *wink*
I'm just really shocked that no one has realized just how important this kind of app can be to the world
Post Script;
It would be advantageous to open the source code so that users might create custom recognition databases they come up with.
( Equestrians might want one for horses the same as enthusiasts of all types)
Can someone please create this for us all? I'd like to help field test it asap.
