3D body scanners fashion
How 3D scanning is shaking up fashion | Courier
According to research by Optoro, a software company that helps brands process returns, 5 billion pounds' worth of items returned by customers end up in landfills in the US. And, when it comes to waste, both manufacturers and consumers are responsible.
Because the cost of producing garments has been driven down so much over the past few years, fast-fashion factories are able to overproduce. To scale a fast-fashion brand, sizes have to be somewhat standardized, which often doesn't take into account the many nuances in body shape and height. On the flip side, people frequently buy garments in multiple sizes to see which fits best, before returning the rest. And, because neither brands nor customers are held accountable, the cycle continues.
Not all returns are integrated back into a company's inventory and supply chain for future sales either. Amazon, for instance, has come under fire for sending returns directly to landfill – most of them unused, functional and in their original packaging. One warehouse in Scotland sends 130,000 items to be destroyed every week, it emerged, because it's cheaper to dispose of a product than it is to try to resell it. Ultra-fast fashion brand SHEIN is also part of this problem: because the cost of each garment is so low, it's more profitable for the brand to just send any returns to the trash.
Customization at scale
Before the emergence of low-cost fashion, tailoring and custom garments were much more common. But customization is challenging at scale, especially at the pace that fashion brands currently churn products out. Some brands are tackling the issue of overproduction at the source, using technology to try to predict demand and making garments to measure.
3D body scanning works by capturing images of a person from different angles and stitching them together to produce a 3D model. In the context of fashion, it means that brands can produce custom-fit garments according to the measurements that the scanner has taken. Depending on the technical complexity of the scanner, it could set a business back by at least five figures.
Fashion brands that specialize in denim, such as Unspun and Weekday, have introduced 3D body scanning to extend the life cycle of their jeans. Atalyé, a made-to-measure fashion brand based in Amsterdam, offers 3D body scanning in its studio, as well as fabric and design options for customers to make a garment their own. In New Delhi, customers of clothing brand Samshék can put on a 3D-scanning bodysuit that takes 150 measurements in five seconds.
No more waste?
Although a body scanner can, in theory, eliminate waste garment production, it isn't always the most financially accessible technology, particularly for a small or independent fashion business. To break even after buying a 3D body scanner, brands will most likely look to pass on the additional cost to customers in the form of hiked prices.
And it's not just money that brands will need to have in abundance: it's physical space, too. Although Atalyé offers customers the option to get fitted both in-store and online, it encourages them to do the former to get the full experience of customization. A number of remote 3D-scanning apps and technologies have launched in recent months specifically for the apparel industry, such as NetVirta. These might help businesses that don't immediately have access to a physical space, but brands will have to work out how to seamlessly integrate a customer's measurements into the online ordering process as well.

Demanding customers want something special. A tailor-made suit lends a uniquely personal touch. 3D measurement meets the highest expectations of your clothing customers. Time-saving contact-free measurement and valid data in just a few seconds. Leaving more time for what's important — giving customers personal advice and a unique buying experience.
Taking body measurements and sizes by hand is laborious and time-consuming. It is also inexact and requires close contact. Spending too much time on this task is costly. With the VITUS body scanner, you can measure your customers automatically without physical contact in a matter of seconds. The whole body is scanned in one measurement process, with all relevant body measurements taken. It does not require an additional effort for you or your customers. Precise body measurements ensure that clothes are more comfortable to wear and so customers are more satisfied.
- 9s scan time
Taking precise body measurements is very hard, as people can only stay completely still for a few seconds. And accurate results require static measurements.
VITUS BODYSCAN generates data with millimeter precision, which can be used to manufacture made-to measure clothing or select suitable clothing sizes from the product range. Results can be reproduced at any time. The provided software automatically determines the relevant measurements for tailors, dressmakers, and designers. Mannequins based on existing customers can also be created.

Rules for 3D human scanning
For the greatest similarity of the resulting 3D copy with the original object and the successful implementation of the process of digitizing a human figure, several important rules must be observed.
By adhering to these recommendations, you can always achieve the highest quality and realistic results. Order a peel 3d scanner from iQB Technologies and you will be able to make a high-precision 3D model of yourself or any other person, and then print it using 3D printing. nine0005
All scanner models are in stock in our warehouse.
- Scan each body part once, especially when scanning a human face. If you scan the face several times in a row, the program will recreate the model as something in between all the received 3D scans. As a result, you will get an option that is completely different from the original face of the person being scanned.
- In the process of work, the person being scanned must absolutely not move - otherwise, any movement, whether it be tilting, turning the head or stepping from foot to foot, can lead to image deformation. It is advisable to freeze in one position for a while and remain motionless until the very end of the procedure. nine0008
- If you want to create a figurine using 3D scanning, then you do not need to use additional light. To get a high-quality 3D figurine, LED flashes are enough.
- When using a turntable, its speed must be made as slow as possible. Thus, a 3D scan of a person will be much more accurate, and difficult places such as palms or ears will be much easier to scan. nine0029

Optical:
Optical 3D scanning technology uses a lamp flash designed to take measurements with the highest accuracy. Projection distortions of the object are recorded by the scanner's video cameras, thereby allowing to determine the shape and dimensions of the scanned object, and then transferred to a specialized PC program for further processing. nine0005
Optical 3D scanners are fast, allowing you to scan people even in motion and in full growth.
Scanning a person with a 3D scanner using this technology takes from two minutes when using a special cell and up to 20 minutes when using a handheld scanner.
nine0030 Most optical handheld devices are capable of color scanning and texture reproduction of the original model and various details, including jewelry and clothing. -
Laser:
Traditional laser scanners, as a rule, are developed for the tasks of metrological measurements, and therefore require special reflective marks to be fixed on or near the object, the position of which is read by the device for precise positioning. Some models of 3D scanners work in tandem with a tracking device (tracker) and do not require the use of reflective marks on the scanned object, for example, Creaform portable 3D scanners. nine0005
Such devices are rarely used for digital measurements of moving objects, including the human body, since the concept of a metrological instrument rarely includes a color camera to capture the texture of an object. However, when it is necessary to produce more accurate models, for example, for orthopedics, prosthetics or the creation of exoskeletons, specialists prefer 3D laser scanners. In addition, this technology allows you to scan shiny, mirror and other complex surfaces, unlike optical three-dimensional equipment. nine0005

The process of scanning a person with a 3D scanner
If you need to scan a person, you can order a scan of any part of the body from us at a bargain price.
The process of 3D scanning and modeling in software generally takes from 10 minutes to several hours.
The obtained data of 3D scanning of the human body is processed in specialized software: errors are corrected, problem areas are eliminated. The finished 3D model with an accurate texture and a clear rendering of the smallest details, if necessary, is sent for 3D printing. At the same time, a high-precision copy of a person can be obtained on a 3D printer, which in the future can become a memorable gift or souvenir. It is possible to scan with the transfer of the color of the object. nine0005
Also, the finished model can be used to create individual products that are ideally suited to the human figure.
It should be mentioned that 3D human scanning is completely safe, painless and does not harm the human body.
