Abstract: A computer-implemented method for scaling an object is described. Two or more lines are generated on a display of the mobile device. The user is imaged with a camera of the mobile device. The image of the user is displayed on the display of the mobile device. Upon determining the feature of the user aligns with the first of the two or more lines on the display of the mobile device, an image of the user is captured. A number of pixels per unit of distance are determined based at least in part on a number of pixels between a predetermined point on the captured image and the feature of the user, and a predetermined distance between a camera of the mobile device and the first of the two or more lines on the display.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for scaling an object is described. A distance of an object from the computing device is measured via a processor of a computing device in conjunction with a rangefinder. An image of the object is captured via the processor. A database of pixel densities is queried, via the processor, for a pixel density at the measured distance of the object from the computing device. A depiction of the object is scaled based on determining a distance of a detected feature of the object.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a three-dimensional (3-D) model of a user. A plurality of images of a user are obtained. An angle of view relative to the user pictured in at least one of the plurality of images is calculated. It is determined whether the calculated angle of view matches a predetermined viewing angle. Upon determining the calculated angle of view matches the predetermined viewing angle, at least one of the plurality of images is selected.
