  • Publication number: 20210312568
    Abstract: In general, one aspect disclosed features a computer-implemented method comprising: obtaining an image related to a damaged vehicle; determining an image type of the image, wherein the image type describes an item contained in the image; extracting one or more images of text from the image; extracting one or more text strings from each image of text; identifying a type of each text string based on the determined image type; obtaining a record, and for each text string: selecting a field of the record based on the identified type of the text string, and populating the selected field with the text string; and determining an identity of the damaged vehicle based on the populated record.

  • Publication number: 20210295445
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for automating information intake process by generating intake instructions for display on a client computing device. A user may be directed to capture data that includes vehicle and owner information using a wearable computing device. Insurance claim information, including damage information, may be obtained based on the captured vehicle information. The damage information may be used to determine intake instructions for capturing the images or videos of the damage. The user may use the system in a handsfree manner by viewing intake instructions via a display of the wearable computing device which allows the user to view the intake instructions while capturing the intake information. Additionally, the user may use voice commands or gestures to control the display of intake instructions.

  • Publication number: 20210090461
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating repair procedures, which are displayed on a client computing device as a series of repair steps based on a determined order. A user may be directed to capture an image that includes vehicle identifying information or license plate number using a computer wearable device. The damage information, repair estimate information, and repair procedure information may be obtained based on the damaged vehicle information. Individual repair procedures and their order are determined by analyzing the damage information, repair estimate information, repair procedure information, diagnostic codes, and historical repair data. The user may use the system in a handsfree manner by viewing the repair procedures in a display of a computer wearable device which allows the user to view the repair information while performing the repairs. Additionally, the user may use voice commands or gesture to control the display of particular repair procedures.

  • Publication number: 20200327743
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for automatically generating a repair estimate report for repairing a damaged vehicle. A user may be directed to capture data that includes vehicle information (e.g., VIN) and damage information (e.g., images of damaged panels and parts) using a computer wearable device based on intake instructions generated by the system. The damage information may be analyzed to obtain repair information. The repair estimate may be submitted to an insurance carrier and a notification specifying an approval or rejection may be generated. The user may use the system in a handsfree manner by viewing and/or listening to intake instructions, vehicle information, and the status of the repair estimate approval in a display and/or through speakers, respectively, of a computer wearable device.

  • Patent number: 9607437
    Abstract: Techniques described herein provide a method for defining virtual content for real objects that are unknown or unidentified at the time of the development of the application for an augmented reality (AR) environment. For example, at the time of development of an AR application, the application developer may not know the context that the mobile device may operate in and consequently the types or classes of real object and the number of real objects that the AR application may encounter. In one embodiment, the mobile device may detect unknown objects from a physical scene. The mobile device may then associate an object template with the unknown object based on the physical attributes, such as height, shape, size, etc., associated with the unknown object. The mobile device may render a display object at the pose of the unknown object using at least one display property of the object template.
