Abstract

A structural analysis computing device may generate a proposed insurance claim for an object pictured in a three-dimensional (3D) image. The structural analysis computing device may include a memory, a user interface, an object sensor configured to capture the 3D image, and a processor in communication with the memory and the object sensor. The processor may access the 3D image including the object, and analyze the 3D images to identify features of the object. The processor may also determine a nature and an extent of damage to a damaged feature of the object, and a cost of repair based upon the nature and extent of the damage—such as by inputting the 3D image into a trained machine learning or pattern recognition program. The processor may generate a proposed claim form including the cost of repair, and display the claim form to a user for their review and/or approval.
