International Classification:

G06Q 30/00

US Classification:

705 261

Abstract:

Disclosed are various embodiments for generating automobile parts bundles associated with maintenance events. A maintenance schedule is retrieved and various maintenance events are identified. Various maintenance tasks associated with maintenance events are also identified. Parts associated with these maintenance tasks are placed into parts bundles associated with the maintenance event and a unique identifier within a parts catalog.

Abstract:

The display of images, such as lenticular images, in a limited display space can be aided through the use of motion-based control, whereby a user can rotate and/or translate a computing device in order to cause different views of a lenticular image to be displayed. Sensors can be used to determine the motion in order to select the appropriate view to display. Approaches can further assist the user in creating lenticular images. The user can specify various configurations in which to display different views in a lenticular. If the user is capturing the images, one or more previously-acquired images can be used as a guide to help the user to align the images. Various processing can be performed to cause the individual views of the lenticular to match as closely as possible in factors such as alignment, brightness, and color range, among other such options.

International Classification:

H04N 5/232

Abstract:

The display of images, such as panoramic images, in a limited display space can be aided through the use of motion-based control, whereby a user can rotate and/or translate a computing device in order to view different portions of the image, including translating or zooming within the image. Sensors can be used to determine the motion for adjusting the display. The same or other sensors can also assist a user in capturing such an image. For example, a compass can determine the relative orientation of the device and a gyroscope can determine rotation of the device, to determine an appropriate path of motion for the capture and any deviation from that path. The user can be provided with information enabling the user to follow the path with an appropriate device orientation.
