How is it with colored objects? Specifically, I am thinking of it as a way to differentiate between the different colors of dress shirts I have. The shirts are all the same style, but differ in color, so I can't tell most of them apart by feel. Will the app know my white shirt from my green one from my yellow one? What about perspective? If you walk up to a store from the left and take the picture, then you approach from the right, will it still work?
