Authored by Mark Hefflinger on February 6, 2006 - 5:04am.
Phoenix, Ariz. - Riya, a developer of photo search engine technology, announced on Monday that it plans to launch a public beta test of its service in the first quarter of 2005.
The company said the search engine uses proprietary face recognition technology, text recognition technology and other elements to scan a library of photographs and automatically generate tags based on their contents. Riya also lets users search a public collection of photos, and share photo collections with friends. Based in Redwood Shores, Calif., Riya has so far raised $19.5 million in venture capital from a group led by Bay Partners.
