Searching Photos by Drawing a Picture
OK, so maybe you’ve got a few hundred, or thousand, photos that you’ve taken, but how do you search them ? You could try and tag them for everything (if you’ve got the time) but wouldn’t it be nice if you could just draw a picture and search for that ?
Well the Digikam folks are working on that by incorporating some of the existing ImgSeek projects code into the KDE4 version of Digikam (0.10.0).
They’ve got a short video demo of it up on YouTube (embedded below).

Hi
I seen somthing simular at the New media Show in London. The only problem was that if you were usless at drawing, your picture of your new born son, would pull up a photo of say, Mount Everist, not good.
Lets see what happens to this new bit of kit.

Robt: I’m still old skool and expect things to be fixed width fonts outputting spaces when you ask them to. Gah, bring back USENET.
