The following ten search engines can help you find images, search for images, and search for similar images.
1: http://tineye.com/
Tineye is a typical search engine for image search. You can enter images on the local hard disk or the image URL to automatically search for similar images. The search accuracy is relatively satisfactory.
Tineye is a similar image search engine developed by Canadian company id é e. Its main purposes include: 1. Discovering image sources and related information; 2. Researching and tracing the dissemination of Image Information on the Internet; 3. Find the image of the high-resolution version; 4. Find the webpage with your photo; 5. Check the different versions of the image.
2. http://shitu.baidu.com
Baidu officially launched its latest search function, "Map Recognition" (shitu.baidu.com ). This function is based on similar image recognition technology. After users upload a local image or enter the URL of the image, Baidu analyzes the Image Based on the image features, then, you can search for similar image resources and information from the Internet. However, when you upload a local image, the image file size is smaller than 5 MB. The format can be JPG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, and other image files.
Http://www.gazopa.com/
Gazopa does not search for Images Based on keywords, but searches for images based on certain features of the image, such as color and shape. There are four gazopa search methods:
The first is the traditional keyword search for images, but gazopa cannot compete with search engines such as Google in the traditional image search field.
The second is innovative image search, but gazopa cannot compete with tineye in this field. Tineye can easily search for the results closest to the source image, while gazopa often does not match the source image.
The third method is to search for images by hand-drawn images. This method is not very useful. Although gazopa has such shortcomings, it is also a very original search engine. Gazopa is still in the internal test phase. If you want to join the test, you can leave your email address on the official website. After receiving the invitation, you can test it.

The biggest feature of picitup is to provide similar image search, that is, to find the initial image through the keyword, click the similar Pictures button under the initial image to search for images similar to this image. The essence is the same as that of Google lab image search.
