Getfugu Announces Completion of Alpha Version of Groundbreaking 3D Product Recognition Technology

Marketwired
Getfugu, Inc. (http://www.getfugu.com/) (OTCBB: GFGU), the next
generation mobile search tool, announced today that it has
completed the initial phase of design and prototype of real time 3D
product recognition. This technology provides consumers with the
ability to recognize products, shapes, and logos through the
viewfinder in real time. Once an object is recognized, Getfugu
provides supplemental information on the object. Consumers can walk
down a street and gather information on any object simply by
pointing their phone at the object whether it includes a logo or
not. Images submitted are compared against a library of 3D product
images. Consumers will have the ability to register items and
products themselves, as Getfugu is currently doing with brand
logos.
For example, a consumer can point their phone at a parked car
and retrieve purchase price, options and features and gain other
valuable information. Or they could point their phone at a
television they wish to purchase and retrieve feedback from other
customers regarding the purchase and the nearest retailer with the
best price.
The technology will simultaneously recognize multiple products
at the same time. The detail retrieved from the server depends on
the pace of movement of the object within the frame. This
technology is extremely efficient and usable regardless of the
handset being used. It represents the next phase in the development
of the popular mobile search tool and Getfugu is the first company
to announce development that is robust enough to support widespread
commercial use.
The development of 3D product/object recognition combined with
the work being done on facial recognition provides a future
framework for a vast array of new recognition applications.
Getfugu is already available on several major platforms,
including iPhone, BlackBerry, J2ME and Android. Getfugu is a
revolutionary new mobile search tool that is designed to work
agnostically on the majority of the world's leading phone
platforms. The key consumer services: See it'; 'Say it' and 'Get
It' integrate the phones' core technologies into a single
easy-to-use tool. Consumers simply point their phone's camera at a
logo (or photo) or speak the brand into the microphone to reach
content.
The Getfugu application is also available for free download at
