At some entrepreneurial meetup I met a german scientist, who was working on applying their image and information system's detection algorithms for exactly that. Could be useful to make an "uncheatable" driver's log.

Didn't hear if it actually made it to market. It still would be quite niche, as the only "improvement" would be that the user wouldn't have to enter the current mileage by hand and can just snap a picture.

However I have a strong feeling that other tools, such as "automatic.com" or other systems that plug into the Can BUS of the car are of more use, if you have to manage a small fleet of cars with varying drivers.
