Cameraphone searching is beginning to get attention in the mainstream press. Those of you who have been with ResourceShelf for a while know that we’ve posted several items about cameraphone searching, including bar code searching, over the years.

This post from about a year ago discusses several of these projects as well as content-based image retrieval. You’ll read about:
