I used Clojure recently for prototyping a piece of a face detection
system running on Java ME. I had learned a bit of Scheme and wondered
if there was already a Lisp implementation for the JVM. A little
search and then I found it.

When I started playing with it, we could already locate a face in an
image. We needed to refine the module further, to find specific
features inside the face, specially the eyes. Clojure's interactive
mode was really helpful, since we didn't really have a well-defined
algorithm for these inside features. I was able to implement several
ideas quickly, and combine pieces of them into what became the
solution we needed.

The Clojure code, however, didn't make it to the production version.
We were close to the deadline, and I didn't knew if the runtime would
fit on top of the ME platform, so I just rewrote the thing in Java.

This was my first experience with Clojure and, overall, I had a great
time.
