  • Publication number: 20230237670
    Abstract: In an example, a digital image comprising a representation of multiple physical objects is received at a client computer. The digital image is copied into a temporary canvas. The digital image is then analyzed to identify a plurality of potential object areas, each of the potential object areas having pixels with colors similar to the other pixels within the potential object area. A minimum bounding region for each of the identified potential object areas is identified, the minimum bounding region being a smallest region of a particular shape that bounds the corresponding potential object area. The pixels within a selected minimum bounding region are cropped from the digital image. The pixels within the selected minimum bounding region are then sent to an object recognition service on a server to identify an object represented by the pixels within the selected minimum bounding region.

  • Publication number: 20150169607
    Abstract: A request that identifies a plurality of items may be received from a device operated by a user. A plurality of view item pages may be accessed. The plurality of view item pages may be accessed based on the plurality of items that were identified in the request. An interface that includes a plurality of images respectively representative of the plurality of items may be generated. The generation of the interface may utilize the accessed plurality of view item pages that correspond to the plurality of items that were identified in the request. Lastly, the interface that includes the plurality of images representative of the plurality of items may be presented to the device operated by the user.
