Abstract
An information handling system includes a three dimensional camera and a processor. The three dimensional camera is configured to capture a three dimensional image. The processor is configured to communicate with the three dimensional camera. The processor to provide the three dimensional image to be displayed on a display screen of the information handling system, to determine three dimensional coordinates for an object within the three dimensional image, and to calculate a dimension of the object based on the three dimensional coordinates.
Claims20
An information handling system comprising:
- a three dimensional camera to capture a three dimensional image including a plurality of three dimensional coordinates associated with an array of pixels of the three dimensional image;
- a processor configured to communicate with the three dimensional camera;
- and
- the processor executing code instructions to display the three dimensional image on a display screen of the information handling system, to identify an object depicted within the three dimensional image, to automatically select object pixels within the three dimensional image, to determine a plurality of three dimensional coordinates among the object pixels within the three dimensional image, and to calculate a dimension of the object based on the three dimensional coordinates of the object pixels depicting the identified object.
A computer implemented method comprising:
- displaying a three dimensional image on a display screen in an array of pixels wherein the pixels include three dimensional coordinates;
- identifying, via processor executing code instructions, an object depicted within pixels of the three dimensional image;
- automatically selecting, via the processor, the object;
- determining, via a processor executing code instructions, a plurality of three dimensional
- coordinates for the object depicted within the three dimensional image;
- and
- determining, via the processor executing code instructions, a dimension of the object based on the three dimensional coordinates associated with at least two pixels of the object depicted in the three dimensional image.
An information handling system comprising:
- a display screen to display a three dimensional image in an array of pixels having associated three dimensional coordinates;
- a processor to communicate with the display screen;
- and
- the processor executing code instructions to identify an object depicted within the array of pixels of the three dimensional image, to automatically select object pixels within the three dimensional image, to determine three dimensional coordinates for a plurality of object pixels depicting the object in the three dimensional image, and to determine a dimension of the object based on a distance between the three dimensional coordinates for the plurality of object pixels depicting object.
