System and process for automatically finding objects of a specific color
DCFirst Claim
1. A computer implemented method for overlaying visual items, comprising:
- using a camera of a client terminal for capturing one or more visual object images;
identifying at least one visual object image in said one or more visual object images which are captured using said client terminal;
conducting a color analysis to identify at least one main color in said at least one visual object;
querying an image database against said at least one main color to select at least one stored image;
as real time feedback to said querying adding said at least one stored image as an overlay on top of at least part of said at least one visual object in a display of said client terminal.

Abstract
A computer implemented method, system and computer program product for identifying the Main Colors and the matching colors of a visual object, and then viewing on a mobile device select items comprising the matching colors, such as from a merchant'"'"'s catalogue. A visual object is analyzed for color content, and the results are stored on a system database located on the device or on a remote server. The color analysis of the objects comprise advanced image processing techniques, such as Main Color extraction using color space transformation comprising HSV, RGB and CYMK to map between pixels in the image. The user can subsequently view a display on their mobile identifying the visual object'"'"'s Main Colors and at least one Harmonic Color; and then select and view all items (i.e. products in a database) comprising one Harmonic Color, and/or all items of a specific type and Harmonic Color.

15. Anon-transitory computer readable medium having embodied thereon a program, the program being executable by a processor for performing a method for overlaying visual items, the method comprising:
-
using a camera of a client terminal for capturing one or more visual object images; identifying at least one visual object image in said one or more visual object images which are captured using said client terminal; conducting a color analysis to identify at least one main color in said at least one visual object; querying an image database against said at least one main color to select at least one stored image; as real time feedback to said querying adding said at least one stored image as an overlay on top of at least part of said at least one visual object in a display of said client terminal.

16. An internet connected system for overlaying visual items, comprising:
-
an interface adapted for receiving from one or more capturing devices at least one visual object image identified in one or more visual object images captured using one or more cameras of said one or more capturing devices; an image database storing a plurality of images; a program store storing code; a processor coupled to the interface, the image database, and the program store for implementing the stored code, the code comprising; code instructions for conducting a color analysis to identify at least one main color in said at least one visual object; code instructions for querying said image database against said at least one main color to select at least one stored image; code instructions for providing as a real time feedback to said querying instructions for adding said at least one stored image as an overlay on top of at least part of said at least one visual object on one or more displays of said one or more capturing devices. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
