Abstract
A method and associated computer system and computer program product. An image is obtained of a product recommender who is interacting with a product. The product recommender is identified based on the image. Information on the product is provided based on the identified product recommender.
Claims6
A method, said method comprising:
- receiving, by one or more processors of a computer system, a digitized photograph of a product recommender and a digitized scan of the product recommender, said digitized photograph comprising both the product recommender and a product being worn by the product recommender, said product comprising a plurality of items being worn by the product recommender, said digitized photograph being a digitization of a photograph taken by a camera;
- digitally matching, by the one or more processors to within a specified first tolerance, the product recommender in the digitized photograph of the product recommender to the product recommender in a digitized reference photograph of the product recommender, wherein the digitized photograph comprises the product recommender's face and the plurality of items being worn by the product recommender;
- and
- digitally matching, by the one or more processors to within a specified second tolerance, the product recommender in the digitized scan of the product recommender to the product recommender in a digitized reference scan of the product recommender, wherein a same product recommender is in both the digitized reference photograph and the digitized reference scan, wherein the digitized scan comprises the product recommender's face and the plurality of items being worn by the product recommender, wherein said digitally matching the product recommender in the digitized photograph to the product recommender in the digitized reference photograph and said digitally matching the product recommender in the digitized scan to the product recommender in a digitized reference scan collectively identifies the product recommender as being the same product recommender in the digitized reference photograph and the digitized reference scan, and wherein said digitally matching the product recommender in both the digitized photograph and the digitized scan identifies the product recommender at a significantly higher level of accuracy than if only the product recommender in the digitized photograph or only the product recommender in the digitized scan is used to identify the product recommender;
- and
- sending, by the one or more processors to an electronic device, information on the product based on the identified product recommender.
A computer system, comprising one or more processors, one or more memories, and one or more computer readable hardware storage devices, each computer readable hardware storage device not being a signal, said one or more hardware storage device containing program code executable by the one or more processors via the one or more memories to implement a method, said method comprising:
- receiving, by the one or more processors, a digitized photograph of a product recommender and a digitized scan of the product recommender, said digitized photograph comprising both the product recommender and a product being worn by the product recommender, said product comprising a plurality of items being worn by the product recommender, said digitized photograph being a digitization of a photograph taken by a camera;
- digitally matching, by the one or more processors to within a specified first tolerance, the product recommender in the digitized photograph of the product recommender to the product recommender in a digitized reference photograph of the product recommender, wherein the digitized photograph comprises the product recommender's face and the plurality of items being worn by the product recommender;
- and
- digitally matching, by the one or more processors to within a specified second tolerance, the product recommender in the digitized scan of the product recommender to the product recommender in a digitized reference scan of the product recommender, wherein a same product recommender is in both the digitized reference photograph and the digitized reference scan, wherein the digitized scan comprises the product recommender's face and the plurality of items being worn by the product recommender, wherein said digitally matching the product recommender in the digitized photograph to the product recommender in the digitized reference photograph and said digitally matching the product recommender in the digitized scan to the product recommender in a digitized reference scan collectively identifies the product recommender as being the same product recommender in the digitized reference photograph and the digitized reference scan, and wherein said digitally matching the product recommender in both the digitized photograph and the digitized scan identifies the product recommender at a significantly higher level of accuracy than if only the product recommender in the digitized photograph or only the product recommender in the digitized scan is used to identify the product recommender;
- and
- sending, by the one or more processors to an electronic device, information on the product based on the identified product recommender.
A computer program product, comprising one or more computer readable hardware storage devices having computer readable program code stored therein, each computer readable hardware storage device not being a signal, said program code containing instructions executable by one or more processors of a computer system to implement a method, said method comprising:
- receiving, by the one or more processors, a digitized photograph of a product recommender and a digitized scan of the product recommender, said digitized photograph comprising both the product recommender and a product being worn by the product recommender, said product comprising a plurality of items being worn by the product recommender, said digitized photograph being a digitization of a photograph taken by a camera;
- digitally matching, by the one or more processors to within a specified first tolerance, the product recommender in the digitized photograph of the product recommender to the product recommender in a digitized reference photograph of the product recommender, wherein the digitized photograph comprises the product recommender's face and the plurality of items being worn by the product recommender;
- and
- digitally matching, by the one or more processors to within a specified second tolerance, the product recommender in the digitized scan of the product recommender to the product recommender in a digitized reference scan of the product recommender, wherein a same product recommender is in both the digitized reference photograph and the digitized reference scan, wherein the digitized scan comprises the product recommender's face and the plurality of items being worn by the product recommender, wherein said digitally matching the product recommender in the digitized photograph to the product recommender in the digitized reference photograph and said digitally matching the product recommender in the digitized scan to the product recommender in a digitized reference scan collectively identifies the product recommender as being the same product recommender in the digitized reference photograph and the digitized reference scan, and wherein said digitally matching the product recommender in both the digitized photograph and the digitized scan identifies the product recommender at a significantly higher level of accuracy than if only the product recommender in the digitized photograph or only the product recommender in the digitized scan is used to identify the product recommender;
- and
- sending, by the one or more processors to an electronic device, information on the product based on the identified product recommender.
