Automatic image capture system based on a determination and verification of a physical object size in a captured image

A device for automatically capturing images, comprising:

• a memory storing an application;
• a camera;
• a display;
• and
• one or more processors in communication with the camera, the display, and the memory, the one or more processors configured to execute the application, the application when executed configured to:
• capture an image frame having a first object within a field of view of the camera, in response to receiving instructions from an application executed on the device, the image frame associated with at least one environmental feature, wherein the at least one environmental feature includes at least one of:
• an angle with respect to the first object and the camera, a distance between the first object and the camera, or a second object other than the first object in the image frame;
• process the image frame in real-time to identify an outline of the first object in the image frame;
• receive a calculated size of the first object, the calculated size based on the outline of the first object and the at least one environmental feature;
• determine whether the calculated size of the first object is within a threshold size;
• and
• automatically extract an image of the first object from the image frame, in response to determining that the calculated size of the first object is within the threshold size.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the one or more processors to:

• capture an image frame having a first object within a field of view of a camera, in response to receiving instructions from an application executed on the device, the image frame associated with at least one environmental feature, wherein the at least one environmental feature includes at least one of:
• an angle with respect to the first object and the camera, a distance between the first object and the camera, or a second object other than the first object in the image frame;
• process the image frame in real-time to identify an outline of the first object in the image frame;
• receive a calculated size of the first object, the calculated size based on the outline of the first object and the at least one environmental feature;
• determine whether the calculated size of the first object is within a threshold size;
• and
• automatically extract an image of the first object from the image frame, in response to determining that the calculated size of the first object is within the threshold size.
