    Abstract: The accuracy of an image matching process can be improved by determining relevant swatch regions of the images, where those regions contain representative patterns of the items of interest represented in those images. Various processes examine a set of visual cues to determine at least one candidate object region, and then collate these regions to determine one or more representative swatch images. For apparel items, this can include locating regions such as an upper body region, torso region, clothing region, foreground region, and the like. Processes such as regression analysis or probability mapping can be used on the collated region data (along with confidence and/or probability values) to determine the appropriate swatch regions.

    Abstract: An auxiliary device can be used to display a fiducial that contains information useful in determining the physical size of the fiducial as displayed on the auxiliary device. A primary device can capture image data including a representation of the fiducial. The scale and orientation of the fiducial can be determined, such that a graphical overlay can be generated of an item of interest that corresponds to that scale and orientation. The overlay can then be displayed along with the captured image data, in order to provide an augmented reality experience wherein the image displayed on the primary device represents a scale-appropriate view of the item in a location of interest corresponding to the location of the auxiliary device. As the primary device is moved and the viewpoint of the camera changes, changes in relative scale and orientation to the fiducial are determined and the overlay is updated accordingly.

    Abstract: Users can view images or renderings of items placed (virtually) within a physical space. For example, a rendering of an item can be placed within a live camera view of the physical space. A snapshot of the physical space can be captured and the snapshot can be customized, shared, etc. The renderings can be represented as two-dimensional images, e.g., virtual stickers or three-dimensional models of the items. Users can have the ability to view different renderings, move those items around, and develop views of the physical space that may be desirable. The renderings can link to products offered through an electronic marketplace and those products can be consumed. Further, collaborative design is enabled through modeling the physical space and enabling users to view and move around the renderings in a virtual view of the physical space.
