Tuesday March 13, 2012

Guess what today is?..........It's Techie Tuesday. Updates on upcoming technology and ideas that'll get you amped for more electronics.

Tech News of the day
             


  Real-time face recognition comes to                your iPhone camera


        Tired of tagging your friends in a photo...after you snap the pic?
     
 According to Apple, tagging after you snap is considered soooo last week. Well, now there's a new app on the IOS market called Klik; what is does is scans the user's face and automatically displays a select list of possible names by connecting to Facebook and skim through the user's friend's photos to identify the person in view.
   When a user takes the picture, the person is automatically stored and has the option to either store it in the phone or upload it via Facebook.  This magnificent app was released on March 7,2012 by Face.com
   
Klik has a certain level of privacy built in,  the app can only identify people a user has previously tagged or people in a user's social network who have already agreed to connect and share with the software's owner.
 Although like other new apps, Klik has is not accurate and based on accuracy tests, only a quarter of results were proven accurate. Just like every other app, there's always room for improvement
