Virtual Clothing - A 3DLife demonstrator

A Demo for the "Robust Virtual Mirror" Integrated Project of the 3DLife Network of Excellence. 3DLife is an EU funded project.

In this integrated project, we focus on the environment of a virtual dressing room. Clothing is usually purchased by trying it on in front of a mirror. We look at how the fabric drapes our body and how we like the blend of colors and textures; and we do so while asking our friends to give us their opinion directly in the dressing room.

However, when buying customized and tailored clothes, we purchase something that has not been produced yet. An augmented reality dressing room, equipped with a Virtual Mirror that shows the client wearing a virtual version of the customized product, could assist the user in the selection of design, fabrics, textures and patterns, and thereby bring back the shopping experience when buying customized and tailored clothes.

The system uses advanced computer vision and graphics techniques to track the user's motion and re-texture the shirt, to provide for interactive segmentation of the user from the background, and to recommend similar clothes based on the analysis of color, shape and texture of the user's real clothes.
