摘要:
An Internet based computer-implemented method for generating and displaying an image of an object on a users computer screen, wherein said image may be rotated 360° about a horizontal axis and 360° about a vertical axis, the method comprising the steps of: accessing a database of digital images or a product; evaluating said user's computer hardware parameters, where said parameters are selected from the group consisting of Internet connection speed, Internet connection type, type of computing device, and type of Internet browser software; determining the dimensions of the display field of the computing device; determining a sharp image size, a spin image size, and a zoom image size; loading a subset of said images; accepting user instructions selected from the group consisting of spin and zoom; and displaying on images pursuant to said user instructions while loading additional images not included in said subset of images.
摘要:
A computer implemented method for searching an electronic database of product images, said method comprising the steps of: accessing a plurality of digital images of each of a plurality of products; segregating said images by color and product type; calculating the number of pixels for each color in each of said product images; dividing said colors into a plurality of discrete segments within the visible color spectrum; averaging the number of pixels for each color for each said image of a single product; applying a multiplier to blocks that exist within a cohesive quantized color group; normalizing said pixel count based on the percentage of the number of pixels within a predetermined range; storing said histogram into a database wherein each discrete segment has one value within the visual spectrum; and sorting the histograms in order of highest percentage of each color in the profile to lowest.
