Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for recommending products or services by receiving a three-dimensional (3D) model of one or more products; performing motion tracking and understanding an environment with points or planes using accelerometer sensor and estimating light or color in the environment using one video camera without a depth sensor in a mobile phone; acquiring sensor data from sensors and optimizing features extracted from each image and sensor data, where a feature conveys data unique to the image at a specific pixel location; and projecting the product in the environment.

Claims

projecting the product in the environment.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

iteratively changing product position until satisfied;

identifying a best fitting product;

setting each best fitting product'"'"'s inside dimension with dimensions from the 3D model plus a predetermined gap;

correlating different manufacturer'"'"'s product sizes and creating correspondences among different manufacturer products; and

recommending a new product by looking up the correspondences among different manufacturer products and generating an augmented or virtual reality display of the new product in the environment.

3. The method of claim 1, comprising receiving images from an infrared camera.
