Abstract
Various aspects of the subject technology relate to augmented reality image retrieval. An application running on a user device allows the user to visualize and modify design features for a real-world object, such as a billboard, a bus-mounted advertisement, or a wall of a room in a building. The application is communicatively coupled to an image server having an image database with millions of available images, and having intelligent processing to identify recommended images from the database, based on the design aspects from the user. The application provides a selectable option to view the design aspects, and/or the recommended database images, on a captured image of the real-world object. In this way, the user is provided with the ability to design the appearance of the real-world object by visualizing and/or modifying, in real time, server-recommended images as they will appear on the real-world object.
