Description
SearchLight Pro is an Android app for before-and-after photo comparison. Photograph a room, drawer, shelf, bag, or other belongings once. Photograph the same scene later. SearchLight Pro lines the two pictures up and marks what looks different. You decide whether a mark matters.

Could you build this?
Partial Basic photo capture and overlay can be built quickly, but robust computer vision alignment (homography/feature matching) and accurate perceptual difference detection across varying lighting and angles is non-trivial.
What it would actually take: This app requires an Android client leveraging OpenCV or an equivalent computer vision pipeline. The technical core relies on feature extraction (e.g., ORB or SIFT), perspective transformation (RANSAC homography) to align angles and lighting variations, and structural similarity (SSIM) or neural difference hashing to flag meaningful physical discrepancies while ignoring shadows and minor exposure changes.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a observability & eval tool for Media & entertainment yet.
