pHash
pHash is an implementation of various perceptual hashing algorithms. A perceptual hash is a fingerprint of a multimedia file derived from various features from its content. Unlike cryptographic hash functions that rely on the avalanche effect of small changes in input leading to drastic changes in the output, perceptual hashes are "close" to one another if the features are similar. Potential applications include copyright protection, similarity searches for media files, or even digital forensics.

Sorry about that. It may have been down for maintenance at that time, but it is functioning properly now.
The demo page www.phash.org/demo/ seems to do nothing except return an empty page.
