  • what products are you sell ?
  • It can be easily done. In what format is your product? Should be in Readable-text so easily can be manuplated on the fly... any good programmer can make you such custom script in php...

  • If I have not misunderstood you. It sounds like something difficult to create.
    It will be a combination on the various technologies and requirements below.

    1. You are looking for an image recognition and matching program.
    2. You will require a huge database of products and their information like pricing, descriptions or how and where to get them.
    3. You will require a normal e-commerce to handle your sales.

    Number 3 is definitely the simplest. However, to combine it with 1 and 2 will take up a huge amount of time.

    From my knowledge, there are currently no public custom scripts that can do this. However, you may make use of the image recognition and matching provided by TinEye. Then again, like I said, you will require your own database of products to match it with. Where will you get this? Are you going to scrape amazon or ebay?

    This does not seem easy and definitely not possible by free means. Get a good team of programmers. You will need it for a project such as this.
  • Thanks all for the reply.

    And what shud such a aplication cost me? How much shud I pay someone for this?

    Thanks

  • Codez for $300 you can create an image recognition and matching web application which is capable of taking a product image input from a user, matching it to a real product uploaded for sale on the internet and allowing you to purchase that product?

    3. the script shows to the customer the customized product
    4. the customer can then order the product
    5. the script send the order details to my mail, with the customers picture


    You do know that he wants to make the product purchasable from him and not from sites like ebay or amazon? It means that you are not only gonna have to collect and match the links of the sale products to the images but also, you are going to have to keep track on which product is available and take information like size, color, or any other details into consideration. This is a lot of information to handle and optimize. You sure you can do it under $300? If this is true, wow.

    Anyway, vip3rGTSr, you would need to provide more details about how you want a user to purchase items from your site. And how you are going to provide them the items after their purchase.

    • Yeah I can. Ability has nothing to do with price, greediness does.

      There are already image recognition scripts out there. I have used them before so that's not a biggie.
