Abstract: Provided are mechanisms and processes for performing visual search using multi-view digital media representations, such as surround views. In one example, a process includes receiving a visual search query that includes a surround view of an object to be searched, where the surround view includes spatial information, scale information, and different viewpoint images of the object. The surround view is compared to stored surround views by comparing spatial information and scale information of the surround view to spatial information and scale information of the stored surround views. A correspondence measure is then generated indicating the degree of similarity between the surround view and a possible match. At least one search result is then transmitted with a corresponding image in response to the visual search query.

Abstract: Damage to an object such as a vehicle may be detected and presented based at least in part on image data. In some configurations, image data may be detected by causing the object to pass through a gate or portal on which cameras are located. Alternatively, or additionally, image data may be selected by a user operating a camera and moving around the object. The cameras may capture image data, which may be combined and analyzed to detect damage. Some or all of the image data and/or analysis of the image data may be presented in a viewer, which may allow a user to perform actions such as navigating around the object in a virtual environment, identifying and viewing areas of the object where damage has been detected, and accessing the results of the analysis.

Abstract: Images may be captured from a plurality of cameras of an object moving along a path. Each of the cameras may be positioned at a respective identified location in three-dimensional space. Correspondence information for the plurality of images linking locations on different ones of the images may be determined. Linked locations may correspond to similar portions of the object captured by the cameras. A portion of the plurality of images may be presented on a display screen via a graphical user interface. The plurality of images may be grouped based on the correspondence information.

Abstract: Provided are mechanisms and processes for performing live search using multi-view digital media representations. In one example, a process includes receiving a visual search query from a device for an object to be searched, where the visual search query includes a first set of viewpoints of the object obtained during capture of a first surround view of the object during a live search session. Next, additional recommended viewpoints of the object are identified for the device to capture, where the additional recommended viewpoints are chosen to provide more information about the object. A first set of search results based on the first set of viewpoints and additional recommended viewpoints of the object are transmitted to the device. In response, a second set of viewpoints of the object captured using image capture capabilities of the device are received. A second set of search results with enhanced matches for the object based on the first and second sets of viewpoints are then transmitted to the device.
