Predicting User’s Measurements without Manual Measuring
A Case on Sports Garment Applications
Featured Application: Improving garment selection without manual measuring for made-to-order sports garments. As sports garments are stretchable, different sizing tables are used than for retail clothing. However, customers measuring themselves leads to errors and unsatisfacti ...
In times of online shopping, it is a challenge to select the right size of the desired clothing without fitting it before ordering. Therefore, this study describes three techniques to predict 3D upper body dimensions. The first method used basic personal parameters (gender, ag ...
For product developers that design near-body products, virtual mannequins that represent realistic body shapes, are valuable tools. With statistical shape modelling, the variability of such body shapes can be described. Shape variation captured by statistical shape models (SSM ...
This chapter presents digital human models (DHMs) as supporting tools in user-centered design for smart clothing. Smart clothing represents the new class of design era 2.0 with interactive technologies intended to be attractive, comfortable, and fit for the purpose of the iden ...
In this paper we present an innovative approach to design smart clothing using statistical body shape modeling (SBSM) from the CAESAR™ dataset. A combination of different digital technologies and applications are used to create a common co-design workflow for garment design. U ...
The human body comes in many sizes and shapes. So, realistic virtual mannequins, which represent body shapes that occur in a target population, are valuable tools for product developers who design near-body products. Statistical shape modeling is a promising approach to map ou ...
products should be both functional and comfortable. They require a close and accurate fit to the
body of the end-user. Current approaches to design body near products rely on 1D anthr ...
Three-dimensional quantitative analysis of healthy foot shape
A proof of concept study
Background: Foot morphology has received increasing attention from both biomechanics researches and footwear manufacturers. Usually, the morphology of the foot is quantified by 2D footprints. However, footprint quantification ignores the foot's vertical dimension and hence, do ...
