Claim One:
1. A method of operation of a volume dimensioning system, the method comprising: receiving, from at least one image sensor, image data, depth map data, and intensity image data of an area from a first point of view by at least one non-transitory processor-readable medium, the area including at least a first three-dimensional object to be dimensioned and a first three-dimensional void, wherein the first three-dimensional void is a visible interior space of a partially or completely empty container; determining, in three dimensional space, from the received image data, depth map data, and intensity image data a number of features in three dimensions of the first three-dimensional object and the first three-dimensional void by at least one processor communicatively coupled to the at least one non-transitory processor-readable medium; based at least in part on the features of the first three-dimensional void, fitting a first three-dimensional receiving wireframe model within the first three-dimensional void by the at least one processor; receiving at least one user input via at least one user interface, the user input indicative of a geometric primitive of the first three-dimensional object; based at least in part on the user input and the features of the first three-dimensional object, fitting a first three-dimensional packaging wireframe model about the first three-dimensional object by the at least one processor; determining, in three dimensional space, at least one of an available receiving dimension and an available receiving volume encompassed by the first three dimensional receiving wireframe model; determining, in three dimensional space, a number of corresponding dimensions of the first three-dimensional object based upon the first three-dimensional packaging wireframe model fitted to the first three-dimensional object, by the at least one processor; based at least in part on the corresponding dimensions of the first three-dimensional object, specialized shipping requirements associated with the three-dimensional object, and the at least one of the available receiving dimension and available receiving volume, determine at least one of a position and an orientation for the three-dimensional object within the first three-dimensional void; and causing a displaying of an image of the first three-dimensional packaging wireframe model fitted about an image of the first three-dimensional object and within the first three-dimensional void on a display.
