Hyperlinking Reality via Camera Phones

Novel user interface concept for camera phones, demonstrated in this video, is based on state-of-the-art computer vision techniques developed at University of Ljubljana. Instead of typing keywords on a small and inconvenient keypad, the user just snaps a photo of his surroundings and objects on the photo become hyperlinks to information. The photo of the user's environment on the camera phone's screen thus becomes a natural interaction device allowing intuitive access to information with a simple tap of a finger.
