Descriptive Camera by Matt Richardson

The Descriptive Camera by NYU ITP grad student Matt Richardson is an experimental camera that only outputs a text description of whatever is photographed. It is powered by the Amazon Mechanical Turk crowdsourcing API—somewhere on the Internet a person sees the photo, describes it briefly, and the text is sent back to the camera for printing on a thermal printer. The process takes 3 to 6 minutes.
