Cooliris builds visual search for Chrome with next-generation web APIs

Cooliris, a company specializing in media applications, developed a visually compelling media browsing experience for Google Chrome through the Cooliris Extension, which leverages next-generation web APIs like WebGL and requestAnimationFrame. These technologies enable the creation of cross-platform web applications that mimic native app performance and user experience while reducing the need for platform-specific code. The Cooliris extension for Chrome, called Image Search, utilizes these APIs to deliver an immersive visual search experience by integrating Google Image Search API for dynamic content and efficient navigation. The development of this extension demonstrates the capability of the web platform, with standards like HTML5 and WebGL, to create high-performing applications comparable to native software. As Cooliris continues to innovate with projects like LiveShare, they are optimistic about the future potential of web technologies, as showcased during their participation in the Developer Sandbox at Google I/O.
