  • Publication number: 20240013452
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating electronic renderings using feature layers. A set of sample electronic renderings can be generated for a virtual space based on feature data (e.g., including a set of features of the virtual space). Rendering data can be determined based on the set of sample electronic renderings, wherein the rendering data includes a set of feature layers, and wherein each feature layer is associated with at least one feature of the set of features. A rendering request can be received, the rendering request including a subset of features and associated feature parameters selected from the set of features as selected feature data, and an electronic rendering can be generated of the virtual space based on the selected feature data and one or more of the feature layers.

  • Publication number: 20130018850
    Abstract: A computer implemented method for configuring multiple products within a defined grouping of user-configurable products including providing a computer-implemented database of user-configurable products at a first computer, each user-configurable product including design parameters distinguishing the user-configurable product from other user-configurable products, each design parameter including a range of values, providing a listing of user-configurable products based on one or, more product configuration selections provided by a user, receiving a selection of a plurality of user-configurable products from the listing of user-configurable products, the selection including identifying a grouping to be associated with the each user-configurable product to create at least two virtual product groups. Each grouping includes at least two user-configurable products.

  • Publication number: 20120284144
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for assessing fidelity of a product customization tool for an electronic catalog including electronic records representing a plurality of customizable products, the customizable products including a plurality of configurable option selections is described. The method includes identifying a plurality of test case grouping including one or more customizable products having defined ranges of the configurable option selection that do not affect a key output parameter for the grouping and identifying a set of test cases selected from the test case groupings, the test cases having selections associated with the configurable option selection. The method further includes evaluating the set of test cases relative to identify instances of products in the electronic catalog conforming to the selections associated with the configurable option selection and generating a report providing differences between what was expected with the number of rules and actual results of the evaluating act.
