Google Images is an index of over 390 million
images available on the Web. It’s a great way to
visually search for products in the category of the
invention or product area you are looking

Let’s say you are working on a new hammer
innovation and you want to find out what’s out there
in the marketplace. Google images will quickly bring
you up to speed on the world of hammers.

Simply type in “hammer “and you’ll see 26,900,00
pictures of hammers. You can use these results to
quickly scan thousands of images of hammers. It’s
amazing! I love it and highly recommend you use
Google Images.

Maybe you’re looking for
products similar to yours
competing products
products with different features
stimulation to help you come up with new product
ideas
Whatever you are looking for, you will see more
pictures of hammers on Google Images than
anywhere else in the world!
You should always do a Google images search to
understand the product area you are working in. It’s a
great way to quickly do your market research.

Let’s say I’m working on a new hammer product
that’s super heavy duty and it's made of fiberglass.

Maybe searching for, “heavy duty fiberglass
hammer” will refine things a bit and I’ll have fewer
images to look over. 75000 images using the new
keywords, “heavy duty fiberglass hammer”.

Oh, but wait, I forgot to include “sledge hammer”, so
let’s add that in there. Let’s search for “heavy duty
fiberglass sledge hammer”. I got 6,650 hits. I think
you get the idea.

Of course you can use more advanced keyword
searching techniques to pin point exactly what you
are looking for and get those numbers down to
hundreds of images or even less. However, I don’t
have time to go into that sort of detail in this blog
post. I encourage you to use one of the many free
detailed tutorials on keyword searching you can find
on the Internet to further refine your keyword
searching skills.
The beauty of Google Images is that you can very
quickly scan a lot of images to do your research.
Every Product Developer, Inventor and Entrepreneur
with a product should use Google images. It’s a great
way to get familiar with a particular type of product.
