Sure, I agree with you that there is more to vision than ImageNet (and many-category object recognition), and that's why I indicated I'm looking for other computer vision problems to work on that I think I can solve. Incidentally, these deep convolutional neural networks do handle rotation very well (see Table 1, Krizhevsky et al): http://arxiv.org/pdf/1301.3530.pdf http://arxiv.org/pdf/1301.3530.pdf
