Systems and methods for characterizing a foot of an individual

A system for characterizing a foot of an individual, the system comprising:

• a display device;
• a camera;
• and
• a processing device of a mobile device operatively coupled to the camera and the display device, wherein the processing device is configured to:
• cause the display device to display live video captured by the camera;
• cause the display device to display one or more visual indicators overlaid on the live video to guide image capture of the foot in different orientations;
• cause the camera to capture a plurality of images of the foot in the different orientations, wherein a visual appearance of the one or more visual indicators is adjusted to facilitate capture of the plurality of images in the different orientations;
• compute, or transmit the plurality of images to a server for computing, a data set corresponding to a three-dimensional representation of the foot, the data set to be computed at least partially from the plurality of images of the foot in the different orientations, wherein the three-dimensional representation of the foot can be inspected, re-used, or re-processed based on new algorithms and/or updated data for the individual;
• and
• cause the display device to display information or data relevant to the foot or associated with the three-dimensional representation of the foot.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions encoded thereon that, when executed by a processing device of a mobile device, cause the processing device to:

• cause a display device of the mobile device to display live video captured by a camera;
• cause the display device to display one or more visual indicators overlaid on the live video to guide image capture of a foot of an individual in different orientations;
• cause the camera to capture a plurality of images of the foot in the different orientations, wherein a visual appearance of the one or more visual indicators is adjusted to facilitate capture of the plurality of images in the different orientations;
• compute, or transmit the plurality of images to a server for computing, a data set corresponding to a three-dimensional representation of the foot, the data set to be computed at least partially from the plurality of images of the foot in the different orientations, wherein the three-dimensional representation of the foot can be inspected, re-used, or re-processed based on new algorithms and/or updated data for the individual;
• and
• cause the display device to display information or data relevant to the foot or associated with the three-dimensional representation of the foot.
