After years of wondering, I have to ask.

What are real life actual useful cases for this tech?

I can imagine in manufacturing: detecting defects or layout mismatch - that's one.

Is there any open source project that uses a image recognition library to achieve any useful task? All I've seen from board partners seem to at most provide very simple demos, where a box with label is drawn around an object. Who actually is using that information, how and for what?

I've also been a part of the Kinect craze and made 3 demos (games mostly) using their SDK and still have a very hard time defending this tech in eyes of coworkers that only see this as a surveillance tech
