An incredibly unique search engine that allows users to search for results on their mobile phone via pictures they take of objects

An Overview of CamFind – Visual Search Engine

There are dozens of popular search engines on the market, with new ones popping up all the time. However, most of them work the same, whereby you type in something and press return for the results. CamFind – Visual Search Engine is an app that works a lot differently, by allowing users to take a photo of something and have the engine search for results based on the picture.

This app is unique to the point of possibly being revolutionary in the way people use search engines. The app was created by CamFind Inc and is available for free for the Android mobile OS. Although relatively new on the market, it is already on version 5.0.2.3, which means that the app updates frequently.

The Features of CamFind – Visual Search Engine

This is just a very fun app to use, bottom line. It's incredibly unique in that all users need to do is snap a photo of something, and the search engine looks for it. Now, to date, the results aren't perfect and are very hit or miss depending on photo aspects like quality, angle, rarity, lighting, etc, but each version is seeing better results.

Features of this app will return similar images, first and foremost, and it works very well with photos of things that are already in the system, like popular landmarks, movie posters, famous people, etc. It also features a QR and barcode scanner, a voice search feature, and you can still use a text-based search if you want.
