The Advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) and deep learning
technology of PictureThis App can quickly scan the plant and recognize the
plant almost instantly within seconds. This is so important specially, if you
are visiting a nursery to purchase some plants for your home and garden. I have
discussed these nursery buying tips in a detailed video, you can check that
link at the end screen of this video.
Well, This app not only identifies the plant but also provide more details
about the plant like the Care tips, its genus or family, planting time, bloom
time, watering and sunlight requirement and many other details which are very
useful for any gardener. It also displays a gallery of additional images and
videos of the plant and maintains a record of your Collected Plants for future
reference.
It also has other advanced features like locating the identified plant distribution on google map. Then it also has a Community tab to learn by discussion and sharing of plant pics and tips. And moreover, they have exclusive support and care for their members.
Having said that, now let’s start testing this app and find out its accuracy. We will test few plants and give 2 points for each successful identification and finally calculate its accuracy as a percentage.
