A pilot study on AutoPatternmaker: a web-based application generating customized basic block automatically
Abstract
Innovative pattern drafting methods existing in research papers are not promoted to the general public or getting enough attention from the industry. This project aims to promote traditional and innovative basic block drafting methods existing in academia to other researchers and educators, related industry personnel, and fashion amateur, by designing a web-based automatic basic block application and establishing a web-based communication platform. To test this idea, a web app was developed to automatically generate customized basic block patterns based on input measurements using the Armstrong method. The pilot study showed that the pipeline is processable, and the next step will be scaling the number of available basic block drafting methods in the app.
