  • Patent number: 10599259
    Abstract: A method that includes employing several sensors associated with a handheld controller, where each of the sensors is made of one of a hover, touch, and force/pressure sensor, and generating, by one or more of the sensors, sensor data associated with the position of a user's hand and finger in relation to the handheld controller. The method continues with combining the sensor data from several sensors to form aggregate sensor data, sending the aggregate sensor data to a processor, and generating an estimated position of the user's hand and fingers based on the aggregate sensor data.

  • Patent number: 10460464
    Abstract: A packing service for packing objects into containers is disclosed. An image-capture device may capture an image of a container and the image may be used to determine the volume of the container. Contextual information associated with the container may be determined, such as objects already in the container, a destination for the container, or objects to be placed into the container, for example. The contextual information may be obtained from the image or from any of various services or systems. Items to be placed into the container are determined, based on the contextual information, for example. Recommendations to purchase items to pack into the container may be made. Recommendations of how to pack or arrange the items into the container may also be made. Additional images of the container may be captured and analyzed to determine whether the packing recommendations were followed or to determine additional recommendations.

  • Patent number: 10275819
    Abstract: Incompatible item pairings may be eliminated or at least reduced when multiple items are presented. A pairwise approach is taken to train a machine learning model to return an incompatibility score for any given pair of items, which indicates a degree of incompatibility between the pair of items. Once trained, the machine learning model may be used to determine an incompatibility score for each unique pairing of items in a set of multiple items. In some embodiments, a graph is generated having nodes that correspond to the multiple items and undirected edges between pairs of the nodes. Scores are generated for each edge of the graph, a minimum spanning tree in the graph is determined, and the items are ranked based at least in part on the minimum spanning tree so that the items can be presented according to the ranking.

  • Patent number: 10083357
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for augmenting or annotating image data to help a user locate an item among a number of items in a physical environment. The systems disclosed herein can access an image of a location that includes a number of items. The systems may then identify the items and the location of the items within the image. Further, the systems may create an interactive alternative visualization of the identified items to facilitate a user locating a particular item. For example, the alternative visualization may include presenting an ordered set of thumbnails corresponding to the items. The user can select the desired item using the alternative visualization and the systems can annotate a location within the image where the item can be located, thereby enabling the user to locate the item in the physical environment.

  • Patent number: 10002377
    Abstract: Techniques for detecting dimensions of an object from a three dimensional (3D) image may be provided. Dimensions of an object may be determined based upon a received 3D image and calibration information for calibrating a dimension related to the 3D image. The calibration information may be utilized for calibrating aspect ratios of the 3D image. In an example, a recommended item may be identified and presented to the user based on the determined dimensions of the object.

  • Patent number: 9965793
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining dimensional criteria of a physical space and identifying a set of items that satisfy the dimensional criteria. For example, the dimensional criteria may be determined based on an image depicting the physical space or search terms provided by a user. Composite keys may be generated based on the dimensional criteria and one or more search terms provided by the user, and the generated composite keys may be used to search one or more databases storing sorted item keys and corresponding item identifiers.

  • Patent number: 9928544
    Abstract: Systems and processes described herein can identify interface points for an item in an image and generate a preview image that illustrates one or more additional items interfacing with at least one of the identified interface points. The system described herein can use augmented reality to present the preview image of an additional item connected to the item at the at least one identified interface point. Further, the system described herein can use a three-dimensional model created based at least in part on measurements of the additional item and a determination of the size of the item from context or reference information within the image to confirm that the additional item will fit the interface point of the item within a threshold degree of fit.

  • Publication number: 20160180441
    Abstract: Augmented reality may be used to preview how an item may be used in conjunction with another item in a particular context. The systems disclosed herein can access an image of a location that includes a reference marker and one or more items. The systems may then identify the items and the size of the location using the reference marker as a guide. A complementary item, such as an organizer, may be selected based on the identified items and the size of the location. This selected organizer may be recommended to the user to help organize the items identified from the image. Further, a preview image can be constructed using an image of the selected organizer and the accessed image of the location to illustrate how the selected organizer may be used at the location with the one or more items depicted in the original image.
