Nokia Point & Find App Demo Video

posted in Nokia News |

Nokia is taking steps to replace your hippest friend who knows all of the latest trends with your smartphone. What the hell am I talking about? Nokia Point & Find service.

This amazing service is meant to further blur the line between interacting in real space and interacting in cyber space. How does it work? Point your camera at something, take a picture and then let your phone tell you stuff about it. At the moment the beta service is only functioning with movie posters but is hoped to be extended to a variety of other medias.

So now you can see a movie poster, ask your camera if it’s cool or not and then it will tell you! Weird, but interesting. It will also link you to trailers, reviews and even directions to the closest theater.

The service is currently in beta testing and Nokia is inviting companies to put their own spins on the product. It will definitely be interesting to see where it goes as it continues to develop.

For more information on beta testing you can click here.

Check out this demo video of the app in action on a Nokia N95:
