Abstract :
Mobile applications are increasingly becoming part of our lives and our work. Moreover, visual capture capability on mobile devices is increasingly being used for linking the real world and the digital world. In this demonstration paper we present an application for accessing and browsing Web sites by pointing a mobile phone at a text book or a printout of a Web site, taking a picture of a small region, performing content recognition and automatically displaying a Web site that is linked to the content.
