Amazon has introduced a new feature in the Amazon app for iOS. Users can now use the "Part Finder" to accurately identify screws, nuts, washers and more for easy ordering. The application recognizes the type and size and helps to order the good.

That it is a screw, a nut, a bolt, a washer or another fastener – the Amazon's new online parts searcher Giant Online now facilitates the purchase of these small parts. This is made possible by a technology that Amazon itself acquired two years ago in Partpic's acquisition. The smartphone's camera is used to identify exactly the small piece to be identified in size and type, and then to compare with other types in a database.
