ReKognition is the most powerful and accurate visual recognition engine. It enables computers to recognize faces, scenes, and objects, thus providing detailed metadata about pictures and video footage. What then can be done with this metadata is a whole new story. We are offering you an exciting opportunity to be a part of our vision in developing a futuristic world with endless possibilities.

You are free to unleash your imagination and creativity to build web-based or mobile applications using our industry-leading API or SDK. There are a variety of industries and use cases, and whether or not it is for professional uses or just a good laugh, we know you can make something cool. If you don’t know where to start or what industry you want to target, here are a few examples:

1. Deja Vu: use our face, concept and scene recognition to enhance your mobile video experience. http://challengepost.com/software/deja-vu

2. The hottie finder: use our face recognition to find the hottie among all your facebook friends! https://apps.facebook.com/thehottiefinder/

3. Selfie Aware: use our face recognition to find out how much you like selfie! http://challengepost.com/software/selfieaware

4. Our own app "rekome" may also inspire your ideas! https://reko.me/

Besides faces, you could use our recognition engine to find dogs/cats, food, scenes and landmarks!  Mobile Apps, websites, extentions and other forms of product are all welcomed! Yes, some of these already exist on the internet, but obviously you can do a better job with the stronger technology. We are really excited to see what you can come up with and how it will change people’s lives. In the words of Marc Andreessen, Founder of Andreessen Horowitz: “Software is eating the world.” Get started - play around with the ReKognition technology, register for the challenge—and let your software eat up this world!
