Project Summary

There are many customers who hesitate while using the dressing room in the shopping mall because of spy cameras. During Eid or any festival shopping stores are filled with customers which wastes the time of customers because of long queues waiting for their turn to come.

In these days handling/catering shopping is becoming hard and time consuming task due to the number of customers available at a time in a store and because of the amount of guesswork involved in determining if clothing suits and ?ts the individual well. A virtual dressing room enables shoppers to try on virtual clothes to check one or more sizes, ?ts or styles rather than physically doing so, allowing shoppers to make their purchases quickly and easily.

On the basis of our research, there has been a lot of work done previously on this particular project idea. In the beginning it involved working on 2d images that were captured by the camera. It involved superimposing of the image of the customer on previously built 2d skeleton also called mesh. The drawback of using this technique was that the image of the customer got hidden in front of the 2d structured catalogue, and also the movement by the customer was not fully catered because of it. Gradually the idea of 3d mesh was used. Microsoft Kinect and Asus Xtion was used for motion detection, body gesture movement. And Unity was used to create a 3d skeleton that helped cater the complete 3d movement by the customer so that it can see how the clothing looks on it.

Project Objectives

The  main  aim  of  this  project  is  to  change  the  idea  of  old  fashioned  dressing rooms  by  means  of  technology  and  minimizing  the  security  hazards  and  size concerns  for  the  customer.[1]  Trail  of  clothes  in  the  shopping  stores  really wastes the time of the shopkeeper and as well as the customers who are waiting for their turn. And it frustrates the customers waiting in long queues for their turn to  come.  And  as  well  as  customers  hesitate  to  change  the  clothes  in  the dressing room because of security reasons. So this has helped us a lot to come with this idea of adequate body suiting which helps to address these problems. Customers  get  a  chance  to  try  on  clothes  without  using  dressing  room  and through  it they can  check the  fitting  and  the  look of  the  dress. Additionally once the customer knows how the dress looks like in the virtual dressing room, then there is a less chance of return. It attracts the customers towards the shop. It also helps the shop owners when they are many customers in the shop. And lastly it saves the garments from damage due to heavy try on clothes.

Project Implementation Method

Project will be implemented using 

motion sensing, hand and body gestures movements

?   Oculus Rift S headset VR to view.

?   Asus Xtion

?   Powered PC to connect Oculus.

And

?   C#

C# is the most powerful programming language available out there. Since, Unity supports C# programming language; therefore we  have  used it as our project development programming language.

?   OpenCV

OpenCV is an open source library for face and body detection. We have used it to extract body markers from camera and for pre-processing before body detection.

?   Unity

We  have  used  Unity  as  our  main  development  platform  because  of  the widely Virtual Reality (VR) libraries and assets available in it and it is one of the most powerful and widely used Virtual Reality (VR) available in the market.

?   ISTTT API

For  voice  recognition  ISTTT  api  will  be  used  to  integrate  the  voice recognition system to our system.

Benefits of the Project

There are many customers who  hesitate  while  using the dressing room in the shopping  mall  because  of  spy  cameras.  During  Eid  or  any  festival  shopping stores are filled with customers which wastes the time of customers because of long queues waiting for their turn to come.

In these days handling/catering shopping is becoming hard and time consuming task due to the number of customers available at a time in a store and because of the amount of guesswork involved in determining if clothing suits and ?ts the individual well. A virtual dressing room enables shoppers to try on virtual clothes to  check  one  or  more  sizes,  ?ts  or  styles  rather  than  physically  doing  so, allowing shoppers to make their purchases quickly and easily.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

1) 3d environment that will have realtime generated mannequin through Asus Xtion

2) Voice recognition for size input

3) Virtual selection of clothes from the rack and displayed on the mannequin.

4) Opinion about whether it needs tailoring or not.
