Abstract:
The invention relates to systems and methods for providing custom-fitted and styled wearable items such as eyewear based on measurements made from a user-provided image that is resized using a predefined reference that includes an image of an actual wearable item. The eyewear may be provided to a user, who wears the eyewear and provides an image of the user wearing the eyewear. The user-provided images may be compared to a predefined reference (e.g., an image of the eyewear) having a known scale and/or dimension. For example, a user-provided image may be overlaid with the predefined reference and resized so that the wearable item worn by the user in the user-provided image matches (the size of) the wearable item in the predefined reference. Because the scale and/or dimensions of the predefined reference are known, one or more measurements associated with the user may be made based on the user-provided image.
