Device, method, and medium for packing recommendations based on container volume and contextual information
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- an image capture device for capturing image data;
a display for displaying content; and
one or more computer hardware processors in communication with the image capture device and the display, the one or more computer hardware processors configured to at least;
recognize, based on application of one or more computer-based object recognition techniques to image data obtained via the image capture device, a container to be packed with one or more items;
identify, based on computer-based analysis of the image data, context data for a packing operation associated with the container;
based at least in part on automated analysis of the obtained image data and the identified context data,determine an item packing recommendation for the container, wherein the automated analysis of the obtained image data comprises computer-based analysis of the obtained image data; and
instruct presentation of the item packing recommendation via the display.

Abstract
A packing service for packing objects into containers is disclosed. An image-capture device may capture an image of a container and the image may be used to determine the volume of the container. Contextual information associated with the container may be determined, such as objects already in the container, a destination for the container, or objects to be placed into the container, for example. The contextual information may be obtained from the image or from any of various services or systems. Items to be placed into the container are determined, based on the contextual information, for example. Recommendations to purchase items to pack into the container may be made. Recommendations of how to pack or arrange the items into the container may also be made. Additional images of the container may be captured and analyzed to determine whether the packing recommendations were followed or to determine additional recommendations.

6. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
receiving, by one or more computer processors, container data derived from container image data captured by an image capture device; determining, by the one or more computer processors, an available volume for a packing operation based at least in part on volume data for the container; obtaining, by the one or more computer processors, context data for the packing operation, wherein context data comprises at least one of travel information, destination information, user item packing preference information, purchase history information, or available item information; determining, by the one or more computer processors, an item packing recommendation for the packing operation based at least in part on the available volume for the packing operation and the context data for the packing operation; and generating instructions to display the item packing recommendation. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing program instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a computing device, perform operations comprising:
-
recognizing, based on applying one or more computer-based object recognition techniques to image data, a container, the image data captured by an image capture device; identifying, based on computer-based analysis of the image data, context data for a packing operation associated with the container; based at least in part on the image data and the context data, determining an item packing recommendation for the container; and generating instructions to present the item packing recommendation via a display. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
