PeakLens is a novel Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality app for mountain lovers, hikers and trekkers. It is the result of years of research in artificial intelligence and computer vision, based on a novel algorithm that identifies mountain peaks in real time with high precision. Its core is a software component that compares what you actually see in the camera of your mobile phone or tablet with a virtual panorama, created from a digital 3D landscape model of the Earth. By matching what you see and the virtual panorama, PeakLens automatically corrects most errors that come from the imprecision of the compass and GPS sensor, giving you always the most accurate peak positioning.
RESOURCES
- Digital Elevation Model: the digital elevation model of the SRTM project (https://www2.jpl.nasa.gov/srtm) is used for calculating panoramic views.
- Peaks: the Peaks dataset is extracted from Openstreetmap.com.

    Unfortunately this has not worked multiple times. It worked for about 3 minutes once and nothing works since. All mountains are apparently mount maroon.

    Almost never finds the peak names and usually says "There are no peaks in view" when there are plenty of them around me.

    No matter how many times i calibrate the compass the mountain peaks always are way off to the right of where they should be

    Underwhelming. Barely works. Only when standing still. Does not work in the car.

    Never works properly.. Maps i want to down load are 10x the size of most maps and never seem to down load..

    Works well in most of the cases, very cool idea

    I like the idea of this app but it is telling me there are no peaks in my area when I am standing in the Alaskan Range. I've restarted the app and recalibrated 3 times. Always the same error. Internet connection is strong and GPS has my precise location

    Slow app, just a fail on so many levels. It makes you recalibrate your compass etc every time by waving your phone in an 8 pattern, so get ready to look like a crazy person on the mountain. Then, it doesn't show all the peaks in the area. And finally, as a cherry on top, you take your photos of the mountain peaks, get back home and realize it hasn't saved a single one of them. 😂 What a joke. It sucks because there are very few of these kind of apps for Android.

    Great idea, but the app is far from perfect: * For offline mode, it requires too much permissions. I do not want to give it permission to access my photos and other files. The app could have stored the data in /sdcard/Android/data, which is possible even without storage permission. * The AI finds peaks even in a room. That would be OK (and expected) for compass-based detection, but it “finds” and moves all the peaks after a while. This does not look very reliable.
