Abstract

Speedy developing CAD technology has changed the product development process in the apparel industry (Cho, Park, Boeing, & Hingston, 2010). For more than a decade, body scanning has provided accurate body measurements, garment-fitting simulations, and an improved sizing system. In less than four years, Kinect technology has been adopted in several laboratories to scan human bodies (Aitpayev & Gaber, 2012; Weiss, Hirshberg & Black, 2011).

Keywords: body scanning, avatar, draping simulation
