Abstract:

The fashion industry is one of the most flourishing fields for visual applications of IT. Due to the importance of the concept of look in fashion, the most advanced applications of computer graphics and sensing may fruitfully be exploited. The existence of low cost solutions in similar fields, such as the ones that empower the domestic video games market, suggest that analogous low cost solutions are viable and can foster innovation even in small and medium enterprises. In this paper the current state of development of vMannequin, a dynamic, user mimicking, user enacted virtual mannequin software solution, is presented. In order to allow users designing dress concepts, the application simulate the creation and fitting of clothes on virtual models. The interaction is sensor based, in order to both simplify the user interface, and create a richer involvement inside the application.
