Visual Search

The Visual Search project is a suite of modules that allow your end users to search for content visually. This is particularly useful in e-commerce applications by giving your customers the ability to search for products by colour, as well as gallery applications.

Visual Search API

This module is the core of visual search, and it provides functions for parsing a given image and extracting colours from the image. This data is then stored in the database for searching.

Visual Search UI

This module provides the user interface for end users to choose colours as search criteria, and also displays the results from that search.

Visual Search Colorpicker

This module works in conjunction with the Visual Search UI by providing a method for defining multiple colour pickers. This gives developers the freedom to integrate whatever colour picker they desire.

Visual Search Node

This module uses the Visual Search API and handles creation, import, and update actions to nodes with images so that the images can be processed.
