Met de recente aankoop van Neven Vision hoopt Google de zoekfunctionaliteit in Picasa te krijgen waarmee gebruikers gemakkelijk foto’s kunnen terugvinden.
Neven Vision is een software huis dat gespecialiseerd is in biometrische herkenningssoftware. In de woorden van Adrian Graham, Picasa’s product manager:
Neven Vision comes to Google with deep technology and expertise around automatically extracting information from a photo. It could be as simple as detecting whether or not a photo contains a person, or, one day, as complex as recognizing people, places, and objects. This technology just may make it a lot easier for you to organize and find the photos you care about.
