- oh_sigh 9y agoHashes produce fingerprints(including perceptual hashes). Most people are talking about cryptographic hash functions when talking about 'hashing' but that is just one type. There is a wikipedia page for 'perceptual hashing' as well as a number of libraries available which claim to do perceptual hashing, so it may just come down to what kind of crowd you roll with :)
