Abstract
A system for accurately determining a size of a pet includes receiving images of the pet (at least three images—front, side, and top are preferred). The system utilizes software (e.g. Artificial Intelligence) to determine a breed of the pet and base sizes of the pet, then the software further hones the base sizes by analysis of the images and, in some embodiments, data from returned merchandise. Once the size is determined, products are presented to the consumer that are in stock and available in the size of the pet. In some embodiments, images of the pet are overlaid with at least one of the products and displayed showing the product on the pet.
Claims20
A system for approximating sizes for pets, the system comprising:
- a server computer;
- a database of animals operatively coupled to the server, the database of animals having data related to types of animals and base sizes for each animal in the database of animals;
- a plurality of images of a pet and data regarding the pet;
- and
- software that runs on the server receives the plurality of images of the pet and the data regarding the pet, and the software selects an animal in the database of animals that is a closest match to the data regarding the pet, and the software generates a set of size parameters based upon the base size of the animal from the database of animals as modified by estimates made from the images of the pet.
A method of determining a size of a pet comprising:
- receiving at least one image of the pet;
- determining a breed, weight, and age of the pet;
- searching a database of animals for one animal that is closes to the pet and generating a base set of sizes of the pet using data regarding the one animal from the database of animals;
- and
- modifying the base set of sizes based upon the at least one image of the pet, thereby producing a set of sizes for the pet.
A system for approximating sizes for pets, the system comprising:
- a server computer;
- a database of animals operatively coupled to the server, the database of animals having data related to types of animals and base sizes for each animal in the database of animals;
- an imaging device having a camera;
- software running on the imaging device acquires data regarding the pet and sends the data regarding the pet to the server;
- software running on the server receives the data regarding the pet and searches the database of animals for a matching animal, the software running on the server then sends at least one shadow outline of the matching animal to the imaging device;
- responsive to receiving the at least one shadow outline, the software running on the imaging device sequentially displays each of the at least one shadow outline, enables the camera, the camera captures an image of the pet corresponding to a current of the at least one shadow outline;
- software running on the imaging device sends the images of the pet to the server;
- and
- software that runs on the server receives the images of the pet, and generates a set of size parameters for the pet based upon a starting size of the matching animal from the database of animals, the software then modifies set of size parameters for the pet by estimates made from the images of the pet along with metadata from the images of the pet.
