If you have the appropriate technical skills, or access to a technology professional with the required skills, images can provide competitive data and evidence of technology use that may not be presented in text form. Image search engines have made it easier to search through and locate specific images of interest. Some of these are shown below.

Review
of Image Search Engines
Reverse image search engine
– Have or find an image but need more documentation of its identity and origin?
Try this site. This plugin for Firefox
adds a right-click menu item that allows you to search for an image 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. You must open this link from
inside Firefox to allow installation of the plug-in.
