Google Goggles – Using pictures to search the web

Posted by: | Posted on: December 11th, 2009 | 10 Comments | Posted in: Marketing offline

We’ve seen search results showing photographs and videos. Now pictures are being used to help you search for results in the search engines.

Earlier this week, Google announced a new way to search the internet – by submitting a photograph from your mobile phone.

This is currently an experimental ‘search-by-sight feature’, called Google Goggles.

Apparently it can recognise books, album covers, artwork, landmarks, places, logos, and more.

For more about Google Goggles read a CNN article here or visit the Google Goggles page.
