Methods, systems, and non-transitory machine-readable medium for incorporating a series of images resident on a user device into an existing web browser session

1. A method, comprising:

during a session that is established over a first communication channel between a first processor-based device and a server, and in response to a request from a user received from the first communication channel, the request requesting a communication path identifier for transmitting a media object to the server, the server providing the communication path identifier for provision of the media object to be associated with the session, the communication path identifier (i) including information that allows for association of the media object with the session and (ii) being associated with a second communication channel between a second processor-based device and the server, the second communication channel being separate from the first communication channel which is used for the session;

in response to receiving the media object from the second processor-based device in a communication via the second communication channel, the server extracting the media object from the communication, creating, using the media object, a model of an item depicted in the media object, and associating the model with the session using information included in the communication path identifier; and

providing, by the server, a representation of the model for a virtual fitting of an article on the item depicted in the media object, said representation being provided during the session for manipulation by the user via the first processor-based device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the representation of the model comprises a three-dimensional representation of the item depicted in the media object.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the representation of the model comprises a two-dimensional representation of the item depicted in the media object.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the representation of the model comprises features and descriptors of the item depicted in the media object, said features and descriptors being detected through an analysis of the media object.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the representation of the model comprises an optical flow of information concerning the item depicted in the media object.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the media object comprises a digital movie or one or more digital images depicting a human face.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the communication path identifier comprises an email address.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the communication comprises an email message, and the media object is included as an attachment to the email message.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the media object comprises a digital movie or one or more digital images depicting a human face.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the communication path identifier is provided to the first processor-based device.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the second processor-based device comprises a mobile phone with a digital camera.

12. A server comprising a processor and a storage device communicatively coupled to the processor, the storage device storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

during a session that is established over a first communication channel between a first processor-based device and the server, and in response to a request from a user received from the first communication channel, the request requesting a communication path identifier for transmitting a media object to the server, provide the communication path identifier for provision of the media object to be associated with the session, the communication path identifier (i) including information that allows for association of the media object with the session and (ii) being associated with a second communication channel between a second processor-based device and the server, the second communication channel being separate from the first communication channel which is used for the session;

in response to receiving the media object from the second processor-based device in a communication via the second communication channel, extract the media object from the communication, create, using the media object, a model of an object depicted in the media object, and associate the model with the session using information included in the communication path identifier; and

provide a projection of the model during the session, said projection being provided during the session for manipulation by the user via the first processor-based device.

13. The server of claim 12 , wherein the media object comprises a digital movie or one or more digital images depicting a human face.

14. The server of claim 13 , wherein the communication path identifier comprises an email address.

15. The server of claim 12 , wherein the communication comprises an email message, and the media object is included as an attachment to the email message.

16. The server of claim 15 , wherein the media object comprises a digital movie or one or more digital images depicting a human face.

17. The server of claim 16 , wherein the communication path identifier is included in an email which is sent to an email address of the user.

18. The server of claim 12 , wherein the communication path identifier comprises an email address.
