Abstract
A technique for transforming an image of an article for virtual presentation without transformation-induced distortion of a shape-invariant area of the article. In an embodiment, a first region of the article image may be identified using automated image processing. The first region may represent a shape-sensitive area of the article whose aspect ratio needs to be controlled when the article image is transformed for use in the virtual presentation. The article image may be transformed to provide a transformed article image for use in the virtual presentation. The transformation of the article image may include a differential transformation that transforms a shape or size of the first region of the article image differently than a shape or size of a second region of the article image representing an area of the article outside the shape-sensitive area. The differential transformation prevents distortion of the first region of the article image.
