Same Energy, A Minimalist Visual Search Engine That Uses Image Categories to Locate Related Images

Same Energy Squid

Engineer Jacob Jackson has created Same Energy, a visual search engine that uses image categories to locate similar, related images. The engine is rather minimalist, requiring few words to garner a search.

This spartan environment is specifically by design.

We believe that image search should be visual, using only a minimum of words. And we believe it should integrate a rich visual understanding, capturing the artistic style and overall mood of an image, not just the objects in it.

The site is still in beta and there are a few things that Jackson is still working out. That said, he’s been very responsive to questions about functionality.
