This week in class we talked about input/output devices. As products develop and continue to grow, updates and new features get added to them. If the Visual Closet goes as planned, voice recognition may be a feature that could be used with it. Voice recognition could be used to say a specific color, clothing item, or style you are looking to wear that day and the Visual Closet would be able to pull up the clothing items that go along with the command you said.

As well, RFID technology could work with the Visual Closet. Items of clothes could have RFID tags that go along with them so you could easily scan this code into your Visual Closet when you purchase it so it takes on seconds to be put into the system. This would help make the whole process of the Visual Closet a lot easier for users so they do not have to waste time putting in specific details and such to get the Virtual Closet to identify the object.

This would also be helpful to customers so if they lost a piece of clothing or could not find it, the RFID would already be on your clothing item so it would be easy to find and track down. The Visual Closet could integrate gps into it so that the exact spot of your clothing object would be easy to locate. RFID is a high technology system and so is the Visual Closet so they would be very compatible together and help users greatly.

  1. For voice recognition you should look into the newly released Siri for the iPhone 4s as well as another company that has a product called Dragon which is known for voice recognition and voice to text conversions.
