Seed is the codec we have developped in order to compress images sent from any client to our visual search engine.
With Seed the amount of data sent over the network is greatly reduced. Typically less then 5ko are necessary to ensure a robust recognition. 10 times less than JPEG !
You need Seed, believe us. Especially if you intend to integrate visual search into a mobile app. You’ll be able to provide your users with the near real-time experience they expect.
So far Seed is only available for iPhone, but Android and Windows 7 versions are on their way. Stay tuned !
