Problems solved by technology

[0009] Reliance on manual editing limits content production to a cycle of continuous manual editing
When a big change is required, the old output is thrown away and the full cost of content creation has to be incurred a second (or third or N)th time

Embodiment Construction

[0045] The following is a description of exemplary embodiments of the present invention.

[0046] For the shopping / store experience application, a key consideration is the need to build for the size of the entire grocery store - approximately 50,000 to 80,000 product models for the scalable packaged item model creation process. This led the applicant to realize that these visualizations require an acceptable level of modeling and that 3D can be generated by using the 2D images on which the 2D images are reprojected to create custom high resolution 3D models for each available product image grid to achieve.

[0047] Figure 1A and 1B is an illustration of the method and shows an overview of a computer system 100 embodying the invention. The computer system 100 comprises a data storage device 11 and a 3D modeler 13 formed by one or more processing modules 21 , 31 , 41 described in further detail below. The data storage device 11 holds product data of various packaged goods (...

Abstract

A computer-implemented method and apparatus of 3D modeling accesses product data of a consumer good product. The product data includes 2D image data of the subject consumer good product and shape information of the subject consumer good product. An extractor extracts the shape information from the product data, including a 3D shape class of the subject consumer good product, and derives a detailed 3D shape graph. The detailed 3D shape graph represents an orthographically correct 3D outline shape of the subject consumer good product. As a function of the determined 3D shape class, a mesh generator generates a 3D mesh of the subject consumer good product from the detailed 3D shape graph. An image mapper projects images onto the 3D mesh, the images being of the subject consumer good product and from the 2D image data. A 3D model of the subject consumer good product results and is configured for interactive display on web pages and in other user-interactive environments.

Description

Background technique [0001] The technical field of the invention relates to scalable content creation for 3D interactive experiences and 3D interactive simulations including but not limited to: video games and online shopping / browsing. [0002] Computer 3D modeling techniques are used to build 3D packaged merchandise for interactive displays, 3D simulations of store interiors. Specifically, 3D modeling was used to enable the end-user experience of browsing products, product store / shelf environments, and the experience of "picking out" products to browse and read product packaging text online. [0003] In the application of building 3D models of packaged goods for display in stores, two strategies are used to build shelf (packaged goods) 3D model content. [0004] The first strategy uses or other general purpose modeling applications to create 3D models by hand from photos and product measurements. Although it is possible to plan and organize workflows for systematically pr...
