Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for characterizing eyelashes or eyebrows which is implemented by computer and comprises the following steps, which are directed toward:—receiving data corresponding to a set of pixels in a close-up image of a body area comprising a plurality of eyelashes, preferably the entirety of a row of eyelashes or of an eyebrow, to be characterized:—applying at least one step of computer vision so as to obtain, on the basis of the image data received, a numerical evaluation of at least one characteristic numerical parameter from among, notably, the number of fibers, an average length of the fibers, an average thickness of the fibers, and a curvature of the fibers.

Abstract: This device for inspecting a human body portion (12) comprises: a frame (14), defining an observation window (26); an optical sensor, configured to capture a measurement luminous radiation (C) from the human body portion (12), and an illumination arrangement, configured to illuminate the human body portion (12), the illumination arrangement comprising at least one light source (30), each light source (30) being configured to produce an emitted luminous radiation (A). The illumination arrangement comprises at least one concave mirror (32) configured to reflect the emitted luminous radiation (A) produced by at least one of the light sources (30) in a reflected luminous radiation (B), the reflected luminous radiation (B) being collimated toward the observation window (26) so as to illuminate the human body portion (12).

Abstract: This method for determining a skin colour of a region of interest of a user, comprises: —importing, from an image library (LIB) of a user computational device (APP), at least one image (IMk) comprising a representation of the region of interest of the user; —performing processing (TS) of said at least one image (IMk) with a machine-learning model (AI_TS) suitable for providing, for each imported image (IMk), a numerical value (ClrEstm_k) representative of the skin colour of the region of interest present in said at least None imported image (IMk); —performing evaluation (EVAL) of the skin colour of the region of interest on the basis of said one or more numerical values (ClrEstm_k) of each imported image.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining parameters relating to the coloration of a body zone of an individual, the method comprising the steps of: selecting a sample (10) for an individual amongst a set of samples (10), each sample (10) of the set being a sample representative of a body zone and having a reference colour distinct from the other samples (10), acquiring, by a sensor, an image, so-called initial image, imaging both the selected sample (10) and a corresponding body zone of the individual, processing the initial image, by a calculator, so as to obtain parameters relating to the coloration of the body zone of the individual.

Abstract: In some embodiments of the present disclosure, one or more machine learning models are trained to accurately estimate skin color in one or more images regardless of the lighting conditions. In some embodiments, the models can then be used to estimate a skin color in a new image, and that estimated skin color can be used for a variety of purposes. For example, the skin color may be used to generate a recommendation for a foundation shade that accurately matches the skin color, or a recommendation for another cosmetic product that is complimentary with the estimated skin color. Thus, the need for an in-person test of the product is eliminated.
