Starting out as a simple iPhone app designed to demo the image recognition capabilities offered by LTU technologies, supported by Drupal, lookthatup took on a life of its own. Today, lookthatup is a mobile visual search solution that can be used to power all types of mobile marketing programs featuring visual search, whether it be mobile apps, email or MMS campaigns. If not for Drupal, this rapid transformation could not have been possible.
