Kinect driven virtual mirror & virtual fitting room with real-time cloth simulation

triMirror's first virtual mirror experiment using Kinect for the skeletal animation, combined with triMirror's avatar customization, real-time cloth simulation and animation, and fitting technologies. PrimeSense's OpenNI drivers used.

Different user experiences are created:
- Clothes superimposed on the virtual mirror image, usually called augmented reality but with real cloth, realiable and helpful fitting, and accurate-dimensioned avatars
- Artificial Intelligence avatar in front of the mirror image, the avatar having the user's measurements, style, and movements
- Green screens with any customizable, branded, or user-tailored environments

Imagine yourself walking down the street, and an Artificial Intelligence avatar in a store window senses you walking by and comes to life. She invites you to come closer and takes your accurate body shape and measurements and says "here, try on this dress for size!" As she tries on the different garments, she helps you judge which ones suit and fit you best of all. It's a new kind of window shopping!

what if it is too tight or too loose?

Also, I am working on a similar project to propose this type of technology for operational purpose rather than retail. What I mean by this is all retailers have a product development cycle, is there any chance this could be used at that stage to reduce product development cost. ?

@salnruch Re: too tight or too loose. You can see some examples on our previous video "Real-time cloth simulation and virtual fitting room". when the cloth's too tigh we can detect it ny stretching and pressure data. When it's too loose, one can see it by how the clothes fit, folds, x-ray views, etc.

ABSOLUTELY

Is this technology accurate in terms of a fiiting onto a human body through just a body scan...?

[triMirrorTV]

@salnruch of course. Use your 3D body scan as your avatar

That looks like Optitex draping technology, can you say if it is?

[triMirrorTV]

@swooshdave no, it's actually our own.

i love this tech but that dress is......

Fantastic concept.
