US 2015/0040072 A1 · THREE DIMENSIONAL IMAGE DIMENSION MAPPING

Abstract

In an example embodiment, a first view of a real-world object is displayed from a first angle. Then a two dimensional shape is overlaid over the first view. Then user interface manipulations of the two dimensional shape are received from a user, defining the boundaries of a first side of the real-world object in the first view. Then a second view of the real-world object is displayed from a second angle. Following that, the manipulated two dimensional shape may be overlaid over the second view. Additional user interface manipulations of the two dimensional shape may be received from the user, defining the boundaries of the first side of the real-world object in the second view. Then dimensions of the first side of the real-world object are derived from the manipulated two-dimensional object from the second view.
