Abstract

A user may be aided in modifying a product that is an assemblage of parts. This aid may involve a processor obtaining images of a target part captured by the user on a mobile device camera. The processor may compare, based on the captured images and a plurality of images of identified parts, the target part to the identified parts. Based on the comparison, the processor may determine an identity of the target part. This aid may also involve a processor obtaining images of a first configuration of a partial assembly of the product captured by a mobile device camera. The processor may compare, based on the captured images, the first configuration to a correct configuration of the partial assembly. Based on the comparison, the processor may determine that the first configuration does not match the correct configuration and may notify the user accordingly.
