So, basically, this is google image search in reverse. You upload your image, and google tells you what it is, and maybe provide some links.
This would work on the principle that robots can already identify objects, so the google servers could match it to a database of maybe five images per thing.
So,
let's say you find a cool bird in your yard, but you look in a bird book, and you just can't find it. Then, take a picture and use google reverse image search.
Specify that it is a bird, and they will tell you what species and give some web pages.
by the way, I'm new here so tell me if this has been done. Tin Eye
