In this day and age when we take photos almost every second and upload it to Facebook, Flickr at just the same rate,. It can be a hassle to tag everyone in the photo or even in some cases spell their names right.
Viewdle has developed an Android app that uses augmented reality application to auto-tag individuals from you phone phonebook & Facebook., which is pretty cool in action. They also plan on using photos to automatically check-in friends to Facebook Places and Have an augmented reality game in the works.
Viewdle app does
- Instantly recognize and tag all of your friends and family
- Automatically create & share faceprints of friends you’ve tagged
- Use your faceprints on any device — mobile, desktop or in the cloud
The game has an interesting premise, of using the app to scan a persons facial features, be it a friend or just a stranger and identifying if they are vampire or human and if they are vampire, you can then attack the character in the game.
Another video from video giving you a good idea of how their software works
