  • Publication number: 20190080024
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of rating customers for design projects includes providing a main computer system including a database of design products, capturing two or more digital images of a physical space, and transmitting the two or more digital images of the physical space to the main computer system. The method includes identifying any of the transmitted digital images that satisfy predetermined quality control criteria, and using photogrammetry software for processing the transmitted digital images that satisfy the predetermined quality control criteria to generate dimension data for the physical space. Geolocation information is extracted from the transmitted digital images and used to generate demographic data for a customer.

  • Patent number: 8812273
    Abstract: A method for generating a design plan for a physical space includes providing a main computer having a database of design products and a remote computer in communication with the main computer, placing an object within a physical space, directing a camera toward the physical space, using the camera to capture a first digital image of the physical space at a first angle and a second digital image of the physical space at a second angle, with the object visible in both digital images. The captured digital images are transmitted to the main computer, photogrammetrically assimilated to produce a three-dimensional data set rendering of the physical space. The method includes using the three-dimensional data set rendering to create a design plan for the physical space, storing the design plan on the main computer, and using the remote computer for accessing the design plan from the main computer.

  • Patent number: 8543358
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for generating a directed design for a physical space requiring design comprising the steps of (a) maintaining a main computer, wherein the main computer is capable of exchanging data with a remote computer; (b) acquiring digitally encoded signals representing an image of the physical space; (c) storing the digitally encoded signals in a imaging computer storage medium; (d) transmitting the stored digitally encoded signals to a design center; (e) designing an interior design plan using the transmitted digitally encoded signals; (f) storing the design plan in a design computer storage medium; (g) transmitting the stored design plan to the main computer; and (h) providing for remote computer communication link access to the stored design plan.
