- Product Description
- In the search-enabled e-commerce market, 3D-Seek.com’s revolutionary shape-based search engine provides an innovative solution in finding manufactured parts or custom service suppliers globally, using even a doodle. Since shape is unique to a part or product, 3D-Seek.com uses shape as a search input to overcome cultural, language and context challenges faced by traditional text-based search engines.
- Market Opportunity
- In the search-enabled e-commerce market, advertisers are eager to measure ROI and reach more targeted audiences globally. Random Secrecy predicts the use of search technologies exclusively for e-commerce purchases to top $92 billion in 2008; it exceeded $35 billion in 2004.
- DEMO Says
- If a picture is worth a thousand words, a doodle may well be worth that many keywords. Imaginestics’ shape-based search algorithms find images using a drawing of the object being sought. This search by doodling has powerful applications in parts manufacturing and other vertical industries, and it will open a rich world of possibilities in consumer-facing web searching, as well.
