We all know and love google, but i think that this startup may be a serious competitor to our beloved google.
Imagine taking a picture, send it to ViPR (virtual pattern recognitions server), and receive all information available about your e-mailed picture !!
A new startup company promises to deliver this ! There name is EvolutionRobotics and there technology is called ViPr.
There official statment goes like this:
Imagine you could search the Internet just by taking a picture of something, such snapping a picture of a music CD to look up reviews and listen to the tracks, instantly getting information on a product featured in a magazine, or looking up recommend places to visit by taking a picture of a famous landmark.
Millions of mobile phone users can “visually search†the Internet today with the help of the a revolutionary search engine powered by Evolution Robotics’ Visual Pattern Recognition technology. (ViPR®)
Coincidence or not, but the company is launching the service by June (That does ring a bell in my agenda :) )
The app in action :
