Frustrated at getting blank results pages from product keyword searches on retailers’ websites? Think it would be easier to pick out what you’re looking for from a lineup of images rather than describing it via text. Well, it appears you’re in luck.
Picitup, a developer and provider of computer vision solutions, launched PicCommerce, a suite that adds visual shopping functionality to websites, in early September. The technology indexes and interprets images similar to the way Google indexes and interprets text. PicCommerce’s cloud-based technology consists of three products: PicColor, which enables consumers to shop by product color; PicSimilar, a product recommendation engine based on visual similarity; and PicCliq, a shop-by-photo engine for mobile apps.
