发明名称 Visual comparisons using personal objects
摘要 Embodiments of the present invention provide automated systems and methods for visualizing a product using standard and personal objects. An image can be retrieved from the shopping history or shopping cart of a user, and the dimensions of the image can be automatically adjusted to make an accurate relative size comparison to a product for purchase.

主权项 1. A method for visual image comparison, the method comprising: receiving, by an auto comparator module, a request for a visual comparison to a first image of an item displayed in a Web-based portal of a requester; responsive to receiving the request for the visual comparison to the first image, retrieving, by the auto comparator module, a second image of a previously featured item, wherein the second image is determined to be contextually related to the first image by an object selector, based in part on information retrieved from one or more websites to which the requester has uploaded content, viewed content, and purchased a product; generating, by the auto comparator module, a set of dimensional properties of the second image, wherein the generated set of dimensional properties of the second image are based in part on a determination made by an image scaler and rotator, in which the image scaler and rotator mines metadata from a product manual to determine the set of dimensional properties of the second image relative to the first image; generating, by a predictor module of the auto comparator module, a predicted change in the set of dimensional properties of the second image at a future period of time; notifying, by the predictor module of the auto comparator module, the requester, of the generated predicted change in the set of dimensional properties of the second image; and displaying, by the auto comparator module, the second image and the first image for the visual comparison, wherein the generated set of dimensional properties of the second image represent a relative size of the first image to the second image.
