Abstract: Computer aided designing software not only the possibility to speed up the process of putting a new model into production and improve the quality of the products, but also reduces material costs and labour intensity, ensuring an elastic change of the assortment. The designing of clothes includes a row of processes and one of the most time and labour consuming is constructing. A construction displays the layout (pattern) of the surface of the body (garment). As it depends on correct anthropometric data, it is very important to get ones right. The use of 3D surface scanning technologies to produce digitized representations of the human anatomy has the potential to help change the way a wide range of products are designed and produced. Every scanning device is equipped with optic (light) appliances to ensure non-contact measuring. Measurements acquired by 3D scanning device should be checked out for compliance with CAD systems for automatized pattern making procedure. The paper introduces the experiment with scanned data usage in CAD pattern making. The project aims to implement scanned data values in the CAD/CAM individual measurement list for acquiring individualized pattern blocks.

Abstract: The level of protective material performance attributes are well defined and highly regulated, however the attributes related to the thermo physiological comfort of materials are not. In this chapter, the application of new materials to firefighting protective clothing systems used in extreme heat is addressed, with a focus on thermo physiological comfort. The new generation of protective textile materials and their structures are evaluated through use of both objective laboratory testing and mathematical modeling methods. In addition, 3D body imaging technology is utilized to demonstrate a method of assessing the fit of protective garments and its potential impact on the thermal status of the wearer. The proposed engineering approach could be used in other areas where the balance between clothing performance and wear comfort is critical, e.g. sport, work wear etc.

Abstract: Relationships of cold protective clothing design and market were explored for apparel function and structure, and cold protective clothing company product to successful meet market demand. People require a large number of outdoor cold protective clothing that makes a chain of market, designer, consumer and manufacturer. They are not only focus on apparel functional comfort but also garment style preference structural design. Sophisticated new technologies are available to the apparel industry to create automated custom-fitted clothing, using 3-D body scanning and software designed to automate patternmaking to effectively improve productivity [1]. Currently, the quantification of fit is complex and ambiguous and objective methods. The purpose of this study was to explore the cold protective clothing manufacturer should have the necessary conditions on function and structure for the market demand.

Abstract: In the paper “Research of calculation method of young female body circumference based on 3d body scanning point and cloud diagrams”, regression value of each girth has a certain error. The reason might be different methods of classification. In order to analysis the reason, in the paper error distribution and comparison between girth regression value and actual measurement data were analyzed which classified with 0.1 and 0.05 category files by using SPSS16.0 software. More accurate methods can be obtained to simulate three dimensions which can provide effective applications to three dimension body scanner and lay a foundation to the research of pants and skirts auto-generation pattern system.

Abstract: This paper presents a customer-centric strategy for e-manufacturing in apparel industry. This strategy integrates 3D body scanning and 3D visualising techniques to allow automatic pattern alterations, based not only on human body measurements, but also on the fabrics’ dynamic properties and features. The 3D virtual try-on integration will actually present the exact idolised avatar of the customer virtually dressed. Scan data and patterns will be automatically transferred through ERP web-enabled interfaces direct to the enterprise’s manufacturing operations and facilities, and will be stored separately for each customer in order to create its ID profile which will be applicable for future purchases or reorders.
