Earthmine is working to bring that concept of visually mapping the real world to a deeper level by improving the quality of virtualization and by enabling the indexation of objects found in landscapes. Imagine for a second that you could notify your friends of something cool or noteworthy that you see when out on the town by simply pulling out your cellphone, bringing up a panorama of your location, and tagging something (a store, a parking spot, an historic landmark) with a note that is automatically shared with your friends. Then imagine you’re a restaurant owner who wants to entice potential customers by tagging the outside of your diner within a 3D panorama with menu information and digital coupons. None of this is possible yet, but Earthmine will provide the technology that could very well make it all a reality.http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/10/03/earthmine-aims-to-index-the-real-world-with-3d-panoramas/
