Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for fitting a subject by generating one or more 3D deformable models for an anatomical portion; capturing images of a user anatomical portion and a reference object using a mobile camera; generating an updated model of the user anatomical portion by selecting a closest 3D deformable model to the user anatomical portion and matching points on the closest 3D deformable model to one or more predetermined points on the user anatomical portion; and selecting a best-fit product from a plurality of product variations based on the 3D model.

Claims

1. A method for fitting a subject, comprising:

pre-generating one or more 3D models for an anatomical portion;

capturing images of a user anatomical portion using a mobile camera;

performing dimension determination with motion tracking, area learning and depth sensing of the anatomical portion;

generating an updated model of the user anatomical portion by selecting a closest pre-generated 3D model to the user anatomical portion and matching points on the closest 3D model to one or more predetermined points on the user anatomical portion;

selecting a pattern or color from a plurality of product variations;

blending the pattern or color onto the 3D model with the determined dimensions; and

displaying the color on the anatomical portion.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the mobile camera comprises a smart phone or a portable camera.

3. The method of claim 1, comprising applying a 3D deformable template to the user anatomical portion and warping the model to one or more predetermined points on the 3D model.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the user anatomical portion comprises hair, foot, hand, finger, toe, wrist, neck, or ear, wherein the object comprises jewelry.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein the jewelry comprises cosmetic jewelry, a facial jewelry, hand jewelry, foot jewelry, ear jewelry, dental jewelry, navel jewelry or a hair jewelry.

6. The method of claim 1, comprising providing a 3D printer for printing a custom object, or providing a bed of sand having a liquid flowable state and a solid state with an impression for a reformably molded object.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the user anatomical portion comprises a body portion, a head, a chest region, a leg, and the object comprises body protection gear.

8. The method of claim 1, comprising monitoring user health using the 3D model of the anatomical portion.

9. The method of claim 1, comprising selecting a best fit from apparel variations or footwear variations.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the user anatomical portion comprises a face and the object comprises facial makeup product.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein the user anatomical portion comprises a head and the object variations comprises hairstyles.

12. The method of claim 1, comprising rendering a virtual reality view or augmented reality view.

13. The method of claim 1, comprising modeling one or more applications of light foundation creme, eye disguise, highlighter, concealer or blush and recommending a makeup to the subject.

14. The method of claim 1, wherein the user anatomical portion comprises a toe or a finger, comprising fitting a ring to the toe or the finger.

15. The method of claim 1, comprising matching used jewelry or consigned jewelry to the subject.

16. The method of claim 1, comprising rendering the product variations on an online portal.

17. The method of claim 1, comprising providing augmented reality view or virtual reality view of the one or more products with a user custom view.

18. A method for selecting a product, comprising:

selecting one or more 3D models from a product database;

capturing images of a user view of a location using a mobile camera and performing motion tracking, area learning and depth sensing a product body portion;

generating an updated model of the location by selecting a closest 3D product model to the user view and matching points on the closest 3D product model to one or more predetermined points on the user view;

selecting a pattern or color from a plurality of product variations;

blending the pattern or color onto the product model with the determined dimensions; and

displaying the color on the product model.

19. The method of claim 18, comprising providing augmented reality view or virtual reality view of the one or more products with a user custom view.

20. A method for fitting, comprising:

selecting one or more 3D models from a product database;

capturing images of a user view using a mobile camera;

performing motion tracking, area learning and depth sensing for objects in the user view;

determining dimensions for the user view by motion tracking, area learning, and depth sensing of objects in the user view;

generating an updated model of the user view by selecting a closest 3D model to the user view and matching points on the closest 3D product model to one or more predetermined points on the user view;

selecting a pattern or color from a plurality of product variations;

blending the pattern or color onto the 3D product model with the determined dimensions; and

displaying the color on the 3D product model.
