Abstract: An image capture system provides automated prompts for aiding a user in capturing images for use in 3D model creation. While a user is preparing to capture an image, the system provides visual indications that indicate whether a quality-based condition is satisfied. Based on the visual indications, a user can determine whether an image, if captured, would likely be suitable for use in creating a 3D model. Determining if the quality-based condition is satisfied may include monitoring output generated by one or more sensors and comparing the output against a threshold value. Additionally, the system may analyze the visual content or metadata associated with an image to determine if the quality-based condition is satisfied and request user input to further identify certain image features that were identified by the system.

According to the present disclosure, a part persona for each part is generated using a data model, by placing the part as an central entity and the one or more influencing factors of each part that affect the OTD of the product are captured in the part persona. A trained intent and OTD prediction model is built and used to predict an initial intent and an initial OTD for each part, based on the corresponding part persona. Further, the trained intent and OTD prediction model is used to predict a successive intent and a successive OTD for each part, based on the conversations and the events. Hence the OTD of the product is accurately predicted and which is useful to ensuring the OTD of the product.
