Always wanted a collaborative 'book spine' pattern matcher / recognizer
project. If only I could take say a gigapan of my bookshelves and have it
tell me the names of all my books and where they were...

For some who listen to music and (still collect physical media) a CD spine
recognizer may prove to have utility as well.

Of course the same pattern is unlikely to succeed for LP's since they
present such a narrow and often unrecognizable surface in their smallest
dimensions.  But kitchen spices might fit into the melange.

In any case this would save the tedium of bar code scanning and the like for
one of the most important aspects of the personal geography of my house -
also good for firing off replacement requests to Amazon for the inevitable
attrition due to lending or loss to guests who wander off with them.
