Noogle noggles: not just funny sounding words 

Recently, I spoke about a cool app that recognized items you photographed with your IDevice. See:

Furthermore, I heard of an app which recognized currency in real-time via the camera on your IDevice. Unfortunately, it's only for US bills. Undaunted, I did some research. Low and behold, I found the following app called Noogle Noggles.

 

So, what is Noogle Noggles you ask? Well, it's the IDevice app which uses the Google Goggles service to figure out the item you took a picture of. Sound familiar?

The big difference is responsiveness for certain objects.

This app is relatively easy. Download and install it from the App Store, launch it and double tap on the "Take Picture" button. The app recognizes Canadian currency very quickly. Voiceover's focus will stay on this button, so you simply double tap again to take another picture.

Happy Noogling, or is that noggling.
