Abstract
Electronic devices are disclosed. A first device stores items, parent categories, images, child categories and product information for each item. The first device receives a search image from a second device, determines a parent category and a child category of the search item, identifies a first database from among the databases matching the determined parent category of the search item, when the child category is determined, identifies a subset of the stored items corresponding the first database that match the search image based on at least one feature of the received search image and the determined child category of the received search image, and transmits information on the identified subset of the stored items to the external electronic device. The second device transmits the image of a first item to the first device, and receives a transmission indicating one or more second items matching the transmitted image for display.
