Technology for capturing, transmitting, and analyzing images of objects

A system for capturing and analyzing images of vehicles, comprising:

• a user interface device comprising:
• a user interface,
• an image sensor,
• a device communication module, and
• a device processor interfacing with the user interface, the image sensor, and the device communication module, the device processor configured to execute a set of instructions to cause the processor to:
• cause the image sensor to capture a set of images depicting a target vehicle, and
• transmit the set of images via the device communication module;
• and a server comprising:
• a database storing (i) a set of base object models, (ii) a set of correlation filters, and (iii) a set of convolutional neural networks (CNNs),
• a memory storing an image processing routine,
• a communication module, and
• a processor interfacing with the database, the memory, and the communication module, and configured to execute the image processing routine to cause the processor to:
• receive, via the communication module, the set of images from the user interface device,
• access, from the database, (i) a base object model of the set of base object models corresponding to the target vehicle, (ii) at least a portion of the set of correlation filters corresponding to the base object model, and (iii) at least a portion of the set of CNNs corresponding to the base object model, each CNN included in at least the portion of the set of CNNs that correspond to the base object model trained on images of a respective set of components of the base object model,
• analyze the set of images using the base object model, the at least the portion of the set of correlation filters, and the at least the portion of the set of CNNs, to determine a set of changes to the target vehicle as depicted in the set of images, including:
• align, by utilizing the at least the portion of the set of correlation filters, the base object model with an orientation of the target vehicle depicted in the set of images based on one or more landmarks detected in the set of images;
• detect, by utilizing one or more CNNs that are included in the at least the portion of set of CNNs and that correspond to a respective component of the target vehicle, one or more changes to the respective component of the target vehicle, the respective component determined based upon the aligned base model and the depiction of the target vehicle in the set of images;
• transmit, to the user interface device via the communication module, information indicative of the set of changes, the user interface device configured to present, in the user interface, the information indicative of the set of changes.
