A point of interest in at least one of the plurality of images captured via the rear-facing camera may be identified and the identified point of interest in at least one of the plurality of images may be correlated with one or more vertices from the 3-D data.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a three-dimensional (3-D) model of a user. A first set of images are captured. Prior to capturing a second set of images the first set of images are processed using a 3-D modeling process, resulting in 3-D data and scaled data derived from the first set of images. The second set of images are captured after processing the first set of images. A second 3-D model of the user is generated using the second set of images of the user and the 3-D data derived from processing the first set of images. A feature of the user is tracked in real time based at least in part on the 3-D data derived from processing the first set of images.

A characteristic of a first user is detected from an image of the first user. A plurality of products are ranked based on crowdsourced data received for a plurality of images depicting the first user in relation to the plurality of products. One or more relatively higher ranked products from the ranking of the plurality of products are associated with the detected characteristic of the first user.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for processing virtual 3-D data efficiently is described. An object image data is generated from a scan of an object. Object polygon model data and object texture map data is generated from the object image data. The object polygon model data is saved in a first object file. The object texture map data is encoded. The encoded object texture map data is saved in a second object file. The data format of the second object file is different than the data format of the first object file.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for processing, by a graphical processor unit (GPU), a plurality of images of a user. A plurality of features detected by the GPU in a first image of the plurality of images of the user is selected. Each selected feature includes one or more pixels. In a second image of the plurality of images of the user, a search is performed for the plurality of features selected in the first image. A variance is calculated, on the GPU, for each selected feature found in the second image. The variance indicates a degree to which a portion of the second image varies from a corresponding portion of the first image. The calculated variance is stored in a variance file.

A first render viewpoint is selected of a virtual 3-D space that includes a 3-D model of at least a portion of a user generated from an image of the user and a 3-D polygon mesh of an object. Polygons of the 3-D polygon mesh are designated as backwards-facing polygons and front-facing polygon in relation to the first render viewpoint.

A first color texture map of the object is applied to the result of the application of the transparency texture map to the backwards-facing polygon. The virtual 3-D space is rendered at the first render viewpoint.
