Move Loot is the most convenient and economical way to buy and sell used furniture online. We pick up furniture from sellers' homes, clean and store it in our warehouses, and then provide a seamless retail experience for buyers.

To better showcase the furniture available, we have photography studios where we take pictures of the inventory to display on our website. We are looking for technical solutions to help make our studios smarter and more efficient.

Please submit the following:

1) Propose a technical solution for how we could capture and recognize furniture measurements without having to measure them by hand

2) If your solution is a physical piece of hardware, attach an artistic rendering (sketch, design, mockup, etc.) showing your solution components and how it would work.
