Apple is working on powerful pattern recognition to identify elements in images captured by your iOS camera system, according to patent filing spotted by Patently Apple.
The site notes that this system would be able to recognize face, phone number, movie, book, prices, time, music, email, map, or bar code related elements.
The advanced camera system will be able to read IBSN numbers, pricing symbols, phone numbers and much more – all in context. For instance, you'll be able to scan a poster of a movie as noted in our cover graphic. From that you'll be able to scan faces and be given contextual menu options pertaining to that face or scan a phone number and be given the option to put it into your contact information or touch the photo of the movie image and call up a movie trailer or access to show times and other relevant information. You'll be able to scan a URL off of a magazine and then touch the URL on the image on your iPad and be given the option to activate the URL.
