Embodiment Construction

[0029] exist figure 1 , 2 In and 3, reference numeral 1 refers to a computer system for determining an estimate of collision damage to a motor vehicle.

[0030] Such as figure 1 As illustrated in , the computer system 1 includes a user interface 10 . The user interface 10 includes a display with a graphical user interface 100 displayed thereon and a data entry element 101 . Depending on the embodiment, the data input element 101 includes one or more keys, a keyboard, and / or a pointing device such as a touchpad, trackball, or computer mouse, thereby enabling a user to input instructions for display or graphical user interface 100, respectively. The upper controls the positioning of a position indicator such as an arrow 107', a cursor, a pointer, or another cursor associated with the pointing tool 107 or the drawing tool 108, 108', respectively. Alternatively, the display is a touch-sensitive display or a multi-touch-sensitive display in which the data input element 101 has ...

Abstract

For determining an estimate of the collision damage to a car, a body part (3) of the car is displayed in a user interface (100). Through the user interface (100), input is received from the user for drawing on the body part (3) one or more damaged areas (4c, 5c). Specifically, the damaged areas (4c, 5c) are defined in each case by an outline of the damaged areas (4c, 5c), drawn on the body part (3) by way of a drawing tool (108, 108'),or as detected from an image. Subsequently, an estimate of the repair cost (C) and the repair time (T) is generated for the user, based on the damaged area (4c, 5c) drawn on the body part (3). Enabling the user to define the outlines of damaged areas (4c, 5c) makes it possible to define and estimate efficiently, flexibly, and accurately collision damage to a car.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system and method for determining an estimate of collision damage to an automobile. In particular, the present invention relates to a computer system and computer-implemented method for determining an estimate of collision damage to an automobile using a user interface displaying body components of the automobile. Background technique [0002] Typically, it is necessary for auto body shops, auto insurance companies, and damage expert appraisers to obtain an appraisal of the damage to an automobile (ie, vehicle) resulting from a collision. Efficient and accurate determination of estimates of collision damage, including the time and / or cost to repair damage to automobiles, is particularly important. [0003] US2006 / 0114531 describes a vehicle inspection station that uses several cameras to capture images of cars. To detect whether the car is damaged, at least a portion of the image is compared with previously stored i...
