Google – Similar Images…!!!
Way back in April, Google re-launched Google Labs, the place where the company tests its new and experimental features. When it re-launched, it added a very interesting experimental feature to Google Image Search: Similar Images. Google Similar Images is an experimental service from Google Labs that lets you find images that are similar with an image you select. "Similar Images allows you to search for images using pictures rather than words. Click the Similar images link under an image to find other images that look like it."
A recap if you don’t remember similar images: it utilizes image recognition technology to help filter search results. If you find an action shot of soccer/football star David Beckham and want to find more like it, for example, you can use Similar Images to filter your results and find similar images.
The feature has been in Google Labs for over half a year, but that’s no longer the case. Google has announced that Similar Images has now become a standard feature of Google Image search.
It was only a matter of time until Similar Images made its debut in Google Search. It’s a very useful and surprisingly accurate feature that really helps you filter images. We can expect to see a lot of users utilizing this feature very soon.
The interface doesn't perform real-time image analysis, so you can't upload images. Instead, Google lets you search the web for images, choose one of the results and click on "Similar images". The results are surprisingly good and this is probably the most impressive feature ever released by Google Image Search.
