Anmol Tukrel is the developer behind iDentifi. He developed the app in 12th grade after learning about the possibilities of machine learning and computer vision. So, what is iDentifi? In sum, it is is a free iOS app that allows users to point the camera at an object and receive a description of it.

and wants to know if a can of soda is Coca-Cola or Pepsi. Before, the individual would have to rely on someone to tell them; however, this app tells them the answer within seconds. It does not only identify objects, but also has the capability to read text.
