- pmoriarty 7y agoHow does the resolution compare to just reading the article on a typical modern computer monitor?
- drpancake 7y agoIt really depends on the smartphone you have. It's simply opening the article inside a web browser embedded in the app.
- alphagrep12345 7y agoHow are you identifying the object in the image?
- drpancake 7y agoIt's taking your location and heading and using lat/long coordinates returned by the Wikipedia API to try to figure out where those articles are in relation to you.
- alphagrep12345 7y agoWhat is heading? Can out phone identify the orientation too? What if there are two "famous" buildings beside each other? How can you differentiate without actually identifying the image?
