Poison Oak Identifier

Identificar el roble venenoso con su teléfono

The best way to not get poison oak is to avoid it all together, and that means knowing how to identify it. There's a general "Leaves of three, let them be," rule that applies, but it's hard to know exactly what those leaves look like in their many colors and variations and sometimes the plant may not have any leaves at all.

Poison Oak Identifier is an app for identifying Western Poison Oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum), which grows in the Western United States. Point your phone's camera at any plant and the app will tell you if it identifies poison oak in the view. The visual display will tell you the percentage likelihood that the view contains poison oak. A beeping sound will get louder and higher pitched as the likelihood increases.

The app was created the latest deep learning techniques including convolutional neural networks and tensorflow.
