I have a pen friend, very easy to operate.
I float through Time and Space like a treeless leaf.

There are two tech options that I know of -- one is the Pen Friend,
where you put a label somewhere and you record what you want the
label to say and then this device (not a phone) reads the label. Then
there is a system whose name escapes me where you have o type the name
in an edit box on tthe phone and then you put the phone near a device
which records the label. I heard about this one from Aiira, so naybe
they can help you find it.

Hi Ian.
I have an app called CLothes Color which did a nice job of describing an
outfit I was wearing. I dont know how it would do with clothes that were on
the hanger that you hadn't put on yet, so this lends to a hit-or-miss type
scenario where you put stuff on and then see what it looks like and possibly
choose another alternative. That might be a pain. BeMyAI will also identify
a picture you take of yourself with astounding accuracy. But again, this is
already after you've donned the garments.
As a side note of commiseration, my wife recently micromanaged my dresser
drawers and now I have clothing whose colors I can't easily identify, and I
personally have no problem with a tactile marking system, which is often
easier and quicker than using my phone, even though using my phone is cooler
and geekier. Whether it's a braille label sewn into the collar or some
marking system involving thread or a way of making the pre-sewn tags
different, if you have the memory capacity for remembering, this is one case
in which a method that doesn't involve tech might be quicker. But. *shrug*
there are tech-related ways to do this.

App based clothing identification
I'm starting a new job in a few weeks and it would really lower the
household stress if I were more independent in identifying and sorting my
work clothes. I'm looking for any experience based wisdom regarding app
based labeling and reading options, as opposed to traditional tactile
options. Any thoughts tips or tricks?
