Abstract
A computer readable medium for sizing a product includes instructions, that when executed by at least one processor, cause a computing device to: retrieve from a webpage information on a product including product dimensions; present on a display of a client device a graphical button that upon access by a user activates a camera for capturing an image of an object positioned at a focal distance from the camera, the object having a surface; prompt the user to enter boundary information of an imaginary housing to be placed on the surface; generate the imaginary housing dimensions in two dimensions (2D) based on the boundary information and the focal distance; and determine whether the product fits within the imaginary housing by comparing the product dimensions against the imaginary housing dimensions.
