TinEye – Search Engine for Duplicate Images
So if you want to know who else is using your images, this is the best way to find out, even if the image name has been changed or it has been modified for any reason.
TinEye is a reverse image search engine. You can submit an image to TinEye to find out where it came from, how it is being used, if modified versions of the image exist, or to find higher resolution versions. TinEye is the first image search engine on the web to use image identification technology rather than keywords, metadata or watermarks.
It just like you search for the “SIMILER TEXT” on google. TinEye dose it same for the images, When you submit an image to be searched, TinEye creates a unique and compact digital signature or ‘fingerprint’ for it, then compares this fingerprint to every other image in their index to retrieve matches. TinEye can even find a partial fingerprint match.
So basically it has been drafted to find out exact frame or picture (duplicate picture with what so ever name it has been placed on the net). TinEye does not typically find similar images (i.e. a different image with the same subject matter); it finds exact matches including those that have been cropped, edited or resized.
Nice. It’ll be cool to know who else is using your images.
