Title: Name Imatch
Post by: dkyndt on August 11, 2021, 08:56:01 AM
Hi All,

I was just wondering where the name "Imatch" comes from.
Is it just something you have seen somewhere, or is there a history behind it?

Thank.

When IMatch first came out it's main purpose was to find visually similar images in large collections.
This was based on a technology I've developed based on how humans see images with their eyes => "Eye Match".

It might be cool to read a "History of IMatch"...

And I'll bet many of us would also like to learn a little more about its creator too...(of course there are privacy concerns there).  Maybe one day Mario will publish his Memoir...

Nothing much to say. I live in my cave, I'm over 1,000 years old and I never sleep.
