So no, I didn't mean sapphire :-) but SAPIR one of the coolest applications invented lately. Thought I should add it to the blog as IBM Research contributed to developing it also.
Now imagine you are on that show...The Amazing Race, and you are given a picture of an artifact and are asked to locate it in the unknown city. Of course teams will start asking people around (who may not speak your language) get detoured and start yelling at each other because they forgot to rotate the picture before trying to find the object :-) What if they would scan the picture and have a cool search engine on their phone recognizing it and telling them exactly where that is? And that the engine could do that without ever seeing the picture....I know I would love to use it as a tourist :-)
