The main programmer here. For the technically curious, the ingredients of the image processing are OpenCV and CNNs(Convolutional neural nets).

On design aspects, we wrote a short post here: http://blog.taglev.com/design-philosophy-behind-taglev/

Not Caffe. We're using a light weight in-house library which compiles and runs easily on mobile devices too. The advantage is primarily in size as we don't need as many features as a full blown framework like Caffe.
