Boston, MA 02\/06\/2014 (wallstreetpr) –\u00a0Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)<\/b> has a made changes by adding \u2018Flows\u2019 \u00a0image recognition technology into its main iOS app, this essentially means that iPhone users will find it easy to carry out shopping by searching products through the use of their cameras. This is not a new technology as Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) <\/b>is thought to have been developing the tech since 2011 through an app called Flow. The traditional method of searching for products involves the use of a barcode or the searching of the entire product name on the search panel.\u00a0 With the new technology, shoppers will only have to use a photo of the product thus making Shopping extremely exciting and easy.<\/p>\n
Changes on Flow<\/b><\/p>\n
The traditionally used \u2018Flow\u2019 only let users photograph items such as Household items, DVDS and book, the new Flow has now been integrated on iOS to enhance the purchase of more products at any given shopping opportunity. Customers with the new\u2018Flow\u2019 will be allowed to manage their wish list while also having the chance of viewing their search history. To increase your wish list youwill only need to capture more products that you wish to purchase with your iPhone camera.<\/p>\n
The new \u2018Flow\u2019 tool will appear just below the scan it tool that allows one to look for goods using the barcode; it has been customized to be more users friendly. Using it is simple as you will only need to activate it, to link it with the iPhones\u2019camera. To be sure it is working look out for blue dots that should start appearing on the display surface<\/p>\n
The success rate is not consistent as it will vary depending on the product you are searching, it has been found to bemore reliable when searching for things like cereal boxes, bag of potato chips and laundry detergent. Flow is abit disastrous when pointed out to drinks but quite faster when comparing to the traditional barcodes.\u00a0 If you are more comfortable with theother search tools there is no need to change as long as you get what you want. Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) <\/b>vice president is of the opinion \u2018Flow\u2019 should be the real deal while going forward when searching for products on Amazon, he was quoted as saying \u201cFlow instantly matches products in your home to items on Amazon\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
