In Star Wars Rebels, there was an E-XD-series infiltrator droid that could quickly take inventory of everything in a Rebel warehouse. With the advanced object recognition capabilities of modern AI, it’s only a matter of time before an app for Android can accurately and rapidly identify and store objects in real-time from video capture. This could be similar to a home inventory app where users only need to capture video and move around the house instead of taking pictures and labeling items. When do you think such an app will become available? Also, what is the closest app available right now?

edit: I didn’t say offline or on-device, I don’t know why everyone assumes that. I mean a service offered through an Android app.

    There is an app called Object Detector which does this. It’s not particularly accurate and can’t recognize a lot of objects though. It does run on phones in realtime though.
