There's a login button hidden at the bottom of the links on the
left-hand side, which lets you log in with your FAS account (for about

Let's up the ante till they can
recognize ripe fruit from green with partial images and then we can use their systems in
fruit picking robots. ;-) Show
a picture of an apple or cherry or broccoli and ask the user to enter the name in the
