Actually I had another thought about the text-recognition in conjunction with AR. Suppose you are abroad and don't know the language. There are a number of occasions when you would need to read signs, menus and what not. How about if you could point your camera at the text and get a translated version of it in your display?

I've seen some example movies on youtube as well on this augmented reality.
In this one the augm. rlty. browser Layar detects celebrity houses and this guy finds Brad Pitt somewhere in Amsterdam. (watch to the end to see brad pitt)

Now i do not see the fun in augmented reality myself, since it is not much more than google maps or whatever. (as it works with the gps)
What i'm about to say might be far stretched and i don't even see a practical use for it.
I was just wondering if anyone here has the knowledge to provide the insight if it would be theoretically possible to create an app to actually analyze objects which are snapped by the camera of the N900 or filmed by it. For example, when you film/fotograph a football, that the application would be able to say: object: football. brand: nike. available at: www.nike.com.
Since maemo is open source this would be THE operating system to think of.
this way you could create a way to analyze someones face or what might be even cooler, to capture a text on paper, and then recognize the characters to transfer this to a word document.
just as some scanners have text recognition.
