Abstract

Claims (70)

1 . A computer-implemented method for machine learning based recommendation of object placement, the computer-implemented method comprising, via one or more processors, sensors, servers, and/or transceivers:

training a machine learning algorithm based upon preexisting data of object placement in a room;

generating room data comprising a plurality of dimensions of a room by:

receiving light detection and ranging (LIDAR) data generated from a LIDAR camera; and

measuring the plurality of dimensions of the room based upon processor analysis of the LIDAR data;

receiving object data comprising: (i) dimensional data of an object, and/or a type of the object; and (ii) color data of the object;

with the trained machine learning algorithm, generating a recommendation for placement of the object in the room based upon: (i) the generated room data, and (ii) the received object data including the color data of the object;

receiving an object placement in the room from a user; and

displaying both: (i) a representation of the object placement in the room from the user, and (ii) a representation of the object placement generated by the machine learning algorithm, thereby allowing the user to compare the placements.

2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the recommendation is a first recommendation, and the computer-implemented method further comprises, via the one or more processors, transceivers, sensors, and/or servers:

with the trained machine learning algorithm, generating a second recommendation for placement of the object in the room; and

presenting, as first and second options, the first and second recommendations to the user.

3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising, via the one or more processors, transceivers, sensors, and/or servers:

displaying, on a display, the generated recommendation for placement of the object in the room.

4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising, via the one or more processors, transceivers, sensors, and/or servers:

receiving a placement of an item from the user in the room;

wherein the recommendation for object placement in the room is further based upon the received placement of the item.

5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising, via the one or more processors, transceivers, sensors, and/or servers:

building a user profile based upon furniture placement in a home of the user;

wherein the recommendation for object placement in the room is further based upon the user profile.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the object data comprises all of: (i) the dimensional data of the object; (ii) the type of the object; and (iii) the color data of the object.

9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , further including, via the one or more processors, transceivers, sensors, and/or servers, receiving selections of preferred object placements from the user, wherein the user profile is further based upon the received selections of preferred object placements.

10 . A computer system configured for machine learning based recommendation of object placement, the computer system comprising one or more processors, sensors, servers, and/or transceivers configured to:

train a machine learning algorithm based upon preexisting data of object placement in a room;
