I don't quite know how to handle features like "Contains a Homebrew Sensor"
maybe this kind of feature would not be directly on the tree.

Here's another idea - shamelessly stolen from a great bit of software
called SuperJPG. <http://www.midnightblue.com> This is (in my opinion)
the best JPG indexing tool available.

Anyways, the package lets you add "keys" to your images. It works like this:

Suppose you have a picture with your kids, the dog, and grandma at Niagara
Falls. You make keys for "kids" "dog" "grandma" and "Niagara" and then
just drag the photo to the key. Later, when you have a romantic getaway
to the Falls again, you key the photos with "Niagara" and "NLSO"

Now say you want all the photos in the index with "dog". Just click
on the key and all the photos with that key come up as thumbnails.
You can doo simple booleans on the keys like "Niagara" and NOT "grandma".

Hope this helps...

Cheers,

You may wish to consider a combination of a main hierarchical taxonomy (mobile->wheels->...) with tag keys for attributes (contains homebrew sensor). User may search both ways. Eric (25 years ago, 2-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics)
