Given the existence of an increasingly demanding customer, time is money when buying. Companies like Amazon and eBay have quickly realized that, if they make the purchase as fast and easy for you, they will get you to dispose of your money without regard. The next thing in the evolution of shopping is not even having to search, image recognition and Augmented Reality is something that many firms of all kinds are already working on.
The last to join is eBay, which has announced an image recognition tool so that you can easily find the object you were looking for, without wasting a single second.
This function has been named as Find it on eBay, and responds to a reality, that with the arrival of Amazon and the popularization of Chinese websites such as Aliexpress or GearBest, fewer and fewer are choosing to go to eBay. This new function for iOS will allow us both to capture at the moment thanks to its integrated camera, and to choose photography directly from the iOS Reel, the umpteenth function that will overload the application and we will end up not using it quickly.
Shopping has never been so easy, wherever you are, even while browsing your social networks, you will be able to make the purchase. At eBay, we've focused on creating complementary technology that helps our millions of customers easily find everything they love at the best price. Find it on eBay will make it possible for these people to buy on eBay using only a photograph that inspires them.
It is clear that the world of innovation has no limits when it comes to "taking out the rooms", but this function is especially interesting for those cases in which we see a product for which we do not know the exact model or brand, now Find it on eBay will do it for us.
