What's RifflePic?

Currently, when you are searching for photos or images on your smartphone, the typical method is to display an image list of compressed thumbnail images laid out on the two-dimensional plane of the screen, then scrolling forward and backward, side to side while following with your eyes to find and view an image.

However, as the number of images stored in the file grows, the amount of scrolling on the thumbnail display screen also grows, the task becomes tedious, and it becomes easier to miss the image you are looking for.

In addition, because it is troublesome to arrange and classify the pictures you take with your smartphone or post on a SNS like Facebook every time, with your photos the way they were when you stored them or posted them, it becomes very difficult for the majority of users to find which images are where, and even though you may think, "It has to be here somewhere," it is a reality that finding it is hard work.


RifflePic is a tool we developed to find images by "high speed shuffling".
In the method it offers, the photos and images stored in a file are shuffled through at 5Hz to 30Hz (200ms to 30ms), and when you find what you are looking for, you can stop it with a touch. With high speed shuffling, it offers a new image searching and viewing method that focuses on humans' advanced instinctive visual ability to quickly recognize the existence of the image they are searching for even though the display time is very short. 
It incorporates a new interface method that takes into account the reaction time between your eyes recognizing the image you are searching for, and the reaction of your finger pushing to stop it (patent pending).

Enjoy a new image searching and viewing experience with RifflePic.
