Claim 9:
10. A method for enhancing image content captured by a machine vision camera, the method comprising:
receiving, at an application executing on a user computing device communicatively coupled to a machine vision camera, an image captured by the machine vision camera, the image including a plurality of visual features;
identifying, in the image, each of the visual features;
for each of the visual features in the image:
determining bounds of a respective bounding region that substantially encompass the respective visual feature,
determining, from the respective bounding region, an upper pixel coordinate limit, a lower pixel coordinate limit, a first side pixel coordinate limit, and a second side coordinate limit for the respective visual feature, and
based on the upper pixel coordinate limit, the lower pixel coordinate limit, the first side pixel coordinate limit, and the second side coordinate limit of the respective bounding region, determining a respective secondary region having an upper bound, a lower bound, a first side bound, and a second side bound for the respective visual feature;

displaying, on an interface of the application, a plurality of entries, each of the plurality of entries corresponding to a respective visual feature of the plurality of visual features;
receiving, at the interface, a selection of one of the entries resulting in a selected entry that has a corresponding visual feature;
displaying the image in a display region of the interface such that a center-point of the respective secondary region of the corresponding visual feature is positioned within a predetermined distance threshold from a center-point of the display region; and
scaling the image such that at least one of (i) a first vertical pixel count between the upper bound of the respective secondary region of the corresponding visual feature and the lower bound of the respective secondary region of the corresponding visual feature is within a first predetermined ratio threshold of a second vertical pixel count of the display region, or (2) a first horizontal pixel count between the first side bound of the respective secondary region of the corresponding visual feature and the second side bound of the respective secondary region of the corresponding visual feature is within a second predetermined ratio threshold of a second horizontal pixel count of the display region.
