Google Patent Imagines Robots Indexing The Grocery Aisle -- Search -- InformationWeek

Friday, February 01, 2008

Google Patent Imagines Robots Indexing The Grocery Aisle -- Search -- InformationWeek: "A patent application filed by Google (NSDQ: GOOG) with the World Intellectual Property Organization in June 2007 and published on Thursday points to more sophisticated search techniques.

The filing suggests that the privacy issues raised by Google Maps Street View will only get more complicated, that YouTube searchers may one day be able to conduct keyword searches for text captured on video, and that Google searches may one day return a list of products on local store shelves.

'Recognizing Text In Images' is an application to patent a method of optical character recognition in digital images."
