Abstract :
ldquoFollow-the-Trial-Fitterrdquo lets a shopper virtually try on different clothes by deforming clothing images to fit the shopperpsilas motion in real time without changing real clothes on her back. The existing virtual try-on systems enable changes of decoration and color, but they tend to be non-real-time, have limitations on the types of clothes, or use 3D character trial fitters, instead of real shoppers. Many shoppers find trying on clothes to be a time consuming chore that negatively impacts their buying intention. There is no doubt that undressing / dressing is a troublesome task, and this time waster is the biggest adverse aspect of trial fittings. Wepsilave designed a novel real-time dressing system that gets rid of the cumbersome task of putting on-and-off clothes, dealing clothes with any design and color. The shopper can see herself on the display dressed in the clothe shepsilas chosen to ldquotry onrdquo when the shopper stands in front of the systempsilas display, which behaves like a mirror. The virtual garment worn by her ldquoreflectedrdquo image moves in real time smoothly according to her motions such as arm flexes.
