Abstract:
Systems and methods can be implemented to conduct a visual search as a service in a variety of applications. In various embodiments, a system is configured to provide searching capabilities of content provided by a first entity in response to a search request by a second entity. An image provided by the second entity can be used by the system as a query image to search the content of the first entity. In an embodiment, the first entity can be a commercial entity providing such a system with image related content regarding its products and services such that any number of individual consumers can search for particular products and services of the commercial entity via their communication enabled devices. In addition, such systems can be arranged for other embodiments to provide customized searches of a single source by many individual devices. Additional systems and methods are disclosed.
